1979-1982
Skate City was one of the last parks built from the '70s skate boom and is often argued as one of the best skateparks ever built. It had two near-perfect pools -- the clover bowl and the keyhole. It also had a kidney, half pipe, capsule and steel top full pipe. Along with an awesome arsenal of pools with tile and coping. Skate City had an insane small bowl collection that included a small kidney, an egg bowl, banked freestyle and a little half pipe that almost went to vert. A good crew of locals and great terrain made Skate City one of the best.
