Fountain Hills Desert Vista skatepark

6/16/2009 One of the only skateparks that allows BMX in the Phoenix valley area. Features include 6' high quarter that's about 20' wide (takes up one whole side of the park). Little funbox/pyramid with ledge and rail. Super tight 5' qp on left side that inexplicably has a ledge directly at the base of it. Another little rail on one side with a small bank leading up to it. Decent sized bank-to-bank hip with a ledge at the top set at 45 degrees to the hip. Opposite of the super wide qp is another one half as wide that's about 3' high and a little steeper that meets banks on either side. No drain, and set right at the bottom of a hill next to a gravel road so there's always lots of dirt/rocks and sometimes multiple rain/mud puddles. This park can be "fun" but not when it's crowded. Way too many intersecting lines for a heated session. Crash up Derby factor 9 (out of 10) when busy.
