Ryan Brennan Memorial Skate Park

A smooth, compact park with a varied street section and fun bowl that gets easily packed on the weekends. The street features are fun, although the construction makes for some odd quirks (like a not-exactly-flat flatbar and slightly off kilter ledges). The a-frame section is perfectly sized and skateable for both stances—same goes for the bump to rail. The mini QPs and the larger ones make for decent flow, although the multiple levels can make it hard to keep a line going. The long stairs make the short runup difficult, but it’s plenty of room for the hubba and handrail. Due to the great variety of obstacles here, almost any skater will enjoy some aspect. Just make sure to go on a weekday if you can.

It’s fine. Obstacles are too big. For some reason designers think every skater wants to throw themselves 10 ft in the air or trick down a huge set of stairs. Hopefully down the line they add more skate plaza elements and open up the boundaries of the park a bit more. Ideally more can be added in that weird space of asphalt walkway. I know the designers of this park are prolific but I think they phoned it in for this one. They don’t even list the park on their website. Everything is crammed and way oversized. Why would someone drop in on a 6 foot tranny to grind a bench five feet away lol the best thing there is the little a frame but again the huge hubba and rail make it really tight and act as unnecessary hazards if you stumble on trick.

Good park but kinda small. Lots of unattended small children from time to time. Parents after they drop their kids off and disappear then come back and sometimes want to fight. I am not a free babysitter and you are a bad parent. Go to Beverly next time or something.
