rincon: partake of the google, there are zillions of city-built parks in california that use a fancy new concept called 'skate at your own risk.' what you think is the problem, isn't, though it's obvious you have never even watched skateboarding to know how people keep from running into each other (HINT: they take turns). i have to wonder if your vitriol exists here only because it's summer and you've already succeeded in shutting down every public school's football, baseball, wrestling and lacrosse programs.

i think this city -- a city in CA -- needs more than one skate park. three at the very least.

I think a problem with a skate park is that it implies folks can SAFELY skate there ... how much will the insurance cost for that lawsuit waiting to happen when little Jimmy breaks his arm? Will bicyclists stay off the skate ramps or have assigned days or will they just try not to hit one another?
