“I was in town for the EQUIPMENT expo at the Kentucky Expo Center was driving back to my hotel when I spotted this amazing Skatepark off the highway. I told my guys we were gonna have to check it out after dinner which indeed we did. We stopped back and checked it out. It's sparked the side of me that loves the skateboard and since I didn't bring one with me, I went and managed to find an amazing shop to set me up so ”

“Best skatepark this side of the Mississippi. Easily top 5 in the country. From beginner to professional, every skill level can learn and grow here. Park lights turn off at 11pm. Some shade under the half pipe, but not much around. No water fountains either so bring water.”

“This place is amazing! It has something for everyone. Huge Halfpipe, massive bowls, transitions. It's really not in a great part of town, but during the day, it was just fine. Top 10 skate parks in the US.”

“I live near this park, & although I'm to old to skateboard, I do like to go watch everyone skateboard, bike, & whatever they use. The kids are very talented, & although I don't interact with them, I still enjoy watching them practice, show off, & teach each other. Every once in awhile someone will approach you with a skateboard to sell. I took my granddaughter there not to long ago, & have been told she wants to skat”
