Can't hate on that. This is the polar opposite of what I'm seeing in the evergreen skatepark topic.
They took every street league park ever built and fused it into a single one. Plus the bowl, which looks incredible.

The „street“ area is huge. That‘s like three skateparks.

Bowl looks dope! It would be great if they made this permanent.

One more bowl section would have been cool - that one is going to be tough to skate with more than one person, but really, backing this shit fully. That street section fucking rules.

can definitely hate on that. street area looks plain as fuck to me. the evergreen haters are dreaming of glorious 20 person at time runs through that sea if rails that are all kinda the same.

I am convinced that the athlethes will perform well in these surroundings.

That looks too generic to offend. Wonder if it's like, transplantable.

Skateparks in Japan are pretty terrible. Wouldn't be surprised if they find a way to fuck it up.

What happens to the park after the games? Public use?

Hopefully it will be built to be kept standing. The Olympics are notorious for hastily building facilities that fall apart a few years after the games. Then it's the host cities problem to figure out what to do with them.

Where’s the slalom run? Where the flat interpretive skate dance area? The fuck! This is the olympics damn it! Not even a hill for speed runs. Phhhhfffft.

Will there be a skate cross event? Like snowboard cross racing with ramps and turns?

Shoulda let the Dime guys design it.

I wonder if any of the teams are going to build obstacles similar to those for their skaters between now and the Olympics.

I'm just thinking how the fuck are they going to rate the lines with that much? Is it going to be 2 categories(tranny and street)? Either way, that much street is really good because it can break the whole "do a trick get out of your board and go to the next obstacle" thing, in this you can skate through the whole line.
