Clippard park Skatepark - Colerain Township, Ohio, U.S.A.

10/18/2010

This skatepark looks very similar to the schematics that are already on the Concrete Disciples site, except that the brick bank/hip combo at the lower left was omitted entirely (cost constraints maybe?), and the hip at the end of the park is actually poured concrete, not brick. This park features two things of note. First of all, it's all extremely well-built. Especially the bowls- there isn't a ripple or a kink anywhere in them. The "street" obstacles are very legit, as well. The second notable feature are the millions of little skater/bmx kids that continually inhabit this park, as well as some over-amped parents that won't hesitate to call the cops on you if you dare say a bad word within earshot. There is also full-time a full-time "caretaker" on site, so littering and graffiti are a really bad idea here. -Bud Stratford, The Solitary Life
