The perimeter of the skatepark provides a wide flat area for riders to cruise all the way around the park while still enjoying a number of ramps and elevation changes. This is where riders can also find street obstacles such as boxes, ledges, and rails.

The obstacles and ramps found around the perimeter give some flow to the top area of the skatepark. And the variety of ramps and banked turns give flow to the area inside the main bowl. To get down into the main bowl, riders can take a variety of ramps at a few different steepnesses, or riders can drop in from metal coping or cement ledges

Once inside the main bowl area rides will find some small to medium sized vert walls and banked turns. The bowl also provides a few pockets, a spine, and a pyramid box .
