Stockwell skatepark
Stockwell skatepark is a 70’s skatepark which has had some modern additions. The old section of the park is a flowing snake run. The newer section of the park is bowled out with coping. It has recently been refurbished.
Skatepark design and Layout
The original design from the 70’s is a free flowing snake run, which was designed for pumping & carving around. New features have been added over the years. The design of the park is quite unique as such. The main features are:
- a snake run
- an open ended bowl
- a ledge/manny pad
- a dish
- a flat bar
Learning features
There is some flat ground for learning The Push and The Carve.
There are plenty of quarter pipes for practicing the The Fakie. The bowl is suitable for learning to pump.
There is a small quarter pipe on the north side of the to learn The Drop In. Once you have done this, it is quite a step up to try and drop into the other quarter pipes in the skatepark.
Amenities
The skatepark is situated very close to Brixton high street so there is plenty of shops & cafes around.
Parking
You have to pay for parking. Avoid driving to the skatepark if possible.
