Riverside Skatepark (located at 1225 C. Street S.W.)
consists of metal ramps (two quarter pipes, a quarter
pipe with a bank in the middle, a small launch ramp, a
spine ramp, a tabletop with a rail, a low funbox, and
a miniramp configuration of a 4 foot mini ramp backed
up to a 6 foot mini ramp connected with a spine off to
the side). There is a nice bank that runs around part
of the fence with a hip. Stairs with two small
handrails and a larger handrail have been placed near
the outer edge (in the bank). A low, square flat-bar
lies behind the miniramps. There's also two drink
machines and a drinking fountain. Restrooms are
nearby.
There are lights (which can be controlled by those who
use the park until a little before 10:00pm). The park
opens in the early morning, and closes at around 10pm
(when the lights shut off). Riding surface is metal
and concrete. It is FREE.
