Overview

The Skateboard Academy is located in a cool 4th floor loft space with tall ceilings and large windows. You need to ride an old school elevator with a retractable metal gate to access the park. A small shop and mini ramp greet you when you walk in. Red curtains and aerial acrobatic rigs hang from the ceiling of the main space.

The park itself is made up of a mixture of different ramps, collected over the years. As much as possible the ramps are modular so you'll never see the same configuration twice.
