New Skatepark in Seattle
A new skatepark has just opened in Seattle. It is located in the Seattle Center area
right across from the "fun forest" and the "EMP" project. The park has a large
collection of 1/2 pipes , street grind elements , a snake run into a 9 foot bowl and
a kicker ramp with 2 rails. It is a great park for intermediate skilled and up , but
is almolst always packed with people. And all of you fruitbooters , please don't go ,
you'll get the shit beaten out of you. - John
