Reviews Summary
Railside Skatepark is highly praised for its immense size and incredible variety of obstacles, appealing to skaters of all skill levels, from beginners on small banks to advanced riders in the large bowl. Families appreciate the dedicated mini pump track, and the welcoming community vibe is a consistent highlight. Some users note the concrete is older, suggesting caution on certain sections.
"i've been here multiple times and its a really good skatepark. there are many different rails, banks, bowls, stairsets, ledges, manny pads, and a lot of other things too. all of these obstacles are also very different and are built for people of any skill, for example, there are small banks for beginners, and larger ones for more experienced people, this also applies to the other obstacles in the park. the size of the skatepark is also really good, its really big and theres a lot of space to skate which makes it good for some people who like to ride flatground. another thing i'd like to point out is that if your someone who doesn't really like to ride street, theres a bowl on the side of the park that is really huge and it features a spine, 90 degree ledge, and in one part of the bowl theres a quarter pipe that goes over 90 degrees. and if you don't really like to ride park, theres a street section where theres many rails, ledges, stairsets, banks, and a lot of obstacles, which makes this park really good for any type of skater. so overall, i think if you want a really big and open place to skate, and that has a lot of different styles of obstacles, then i think you should come to this skatepark and check it out."

"Amazing! It doesn't blow Vancouver parks out of the water, but it's worth a trip. Such a nice park beside it too. Bring a helmet for the bowl and prepare for older concrete. Plenty of space for flat-ground tricks and learning on the smaller ramps and rails."
Stuart Clarke
"Our children really enjoy the variety of ramps and rails at this skatepark. They range in age from 3 -13 years, which makes it a wonderful go-to park for fun for everyone!"
