I bought an Entire SKATEPARK in the middle of the Desert!

    Congrats on buying this place with the intent to preserve it. I passed through in June 2022 on my exodus out of California and reached out to the previous owner to skate it. Very gracious guy, gave me the gate code and only asked that I left a modest donation for future additions to the park. Hope to skate it again some day. I preferred the "flow" area to the cradle area, but it was all great frankly. And my 2¢ is that I like "Desert skate ranch." Its a 50's era home and cowboys and ranching were part of the pop culture at the time.

    A spot like that, with a pool in the desert, needs a name like "Golden Oasis" or "Starlight Park". And yes for a bunch of simple platforms on pier blocks with corner posts and a canvas awning. Put some fence or trellis on the highway side. People could pull up to their platform, put up a tent at one end and post up with their camp chairs and cooler.

    Would you believe me if I say I was watching this video having just gotten back on the board at 47 after 17 years away and asking myself, “why did I ever stop?” 😊 Then I remembered the work, the kids, the mortgage and the broken bones. It’s awesome to be back though - better late than never. Either way, watching these guys skate reminds me of why I did it for so long - good times with good friends.
