Your timing is pretty bad. It was bulldozed 2 weeks ago. it was called Falcon and although I never got a chance to get in there, those who have say it was great. R.I.P. Falcon. |

It was a park in the 70s. Bulldozed early 80s but they apparently got lazy and left a 20' piece of the snake run. Its got very little flatbottom (about 6") and no coping. VERY FAST. apparently gone now according to kevineleven. I skated it twice. There was a small freestyle area that had banked walls that was still partly intact and at the end of the snake run it curved around into a flat area with moguls, but that part had standing water in it. Check the link in my last post for pics of the park when it was still open. |

I remember seeing pics a few years ago, looks like fun. Why would they doze it, if I remember right it was in the middle of nowhere. |
