Skate Parks
Skateboarding
Ramps, bowls, rails, and more! If you are looking to ollie a 12 set, 50-50 a double kink, or just session it with some friends, you’ll find tons of off-the-hook features spread throughout the Roanoke Region. Skate parks are popular with youth but are also great fun for skateboarders of any age.
Here are a few tips for skate park etiquette:
- Wait your turn and don’t cross the path of other skaters. You don’t know what move they may try next.
- When it is your turn, be considerate of others waiting to shred.
- Be nice to newbies and younger kids trying to learn some moves.
- Don’t sit on the ledges.
