Best Skatepark Builders & Designers In The USA


Spohn Ranch Skateparks

Spohn Ranch Skateparks was started by Aaron Spohn thirty years ago after he built a halfpipe in his own backyard. This skatepark design and building company consists of highly skilled craftsmen including landscape designers, iron workers, grading wizards and ACI-certified shotcrete nozzlemen who have now built skateparks in over forty U.S. states!

These skatepark builders pride themselves on dedication to detail and architectural finesse and this shows in the skateparks they are building. Their skatepark designs are state of the art and I personally feel they are partly responsible for the progression of skateboarding over the last few years.

From perfect street plazas to bad ass bowls, Spohn Ranch are doing it right. Check out some of their skateparks such as Clarkdale Skatepark, Castaic Skatepark, Copper Sky Skatepark, Cooper Skatepark, Page Skatepark, and Lehi Skatepark.

California Skateparks

California Skateparks are held at a very high standard and so they should be. The building company crew includes professional skateboarders, landscape architects, civil and structural engineering experts, along with master builders who have built skateparks all over the USA.

These guys have built several Street League, Dew Tour, and Vans Park series skateparks. Their skateparks are progressive and modern in design, and are built to perfection no matter if it’s a street plaza or bowl. Here are some of the skateparks they have designed and built: Tinnel Memorial Skatepark, Stoner Skate Plaza, Lake Cunningham and Maloof Skatepark.

Dreamland Skateparks have been one of the best skatepark builders and designers for the past twenty-six years! Their crew consists of talented skateboarders, architects, and concrete craftsmen. Dreamland is an Oregon based company and have built a big portfolio of skateparks around the USA.

The owner of this skatepark design and building company (Mark Scott) is a skate rat through and through offering his time and donating materials to the Burnside Skatepark build since back in 1990. Mark is in the trenches with his crew on every skatepark they build which says a lot.

Evergreen Skateparks

Evergreen Skateparks is a family run company started by Billy and Catherine Coulon from Portland Oregon. This skatepark design and build company has proven themselves to be world class. Evergreen Skateparks won the 2017 award for Most Innovative Concrete Project in the State of Michigan, and for ‘Thunder Park’ on the Blackfeet Reservation in Browning, Montana.

Evergreen’s mission is to build innovative skateparks for skateboarders of all abilities and I believe they are succeeding with their mission. Take a look at some of their awesome skateparks which include Coeur d’Alene Skatepark, Milliken Skatepark and Cashmere Skatepark.

Team Pain Skateparks is based in Florida and they have over thirty years of experience designing and building skateparks.

New Line Skateparks

New Line Skateparks has over eighteen years of experience as a full service skatepark design and building construction company. They have completed a whopping three hundred projects worldwide! I think it is safe to say these guys are very experienced in designing and building skateparks.

New Line incorporate locally inspired art and sculpture into their urban plazas and use connections to surrounding amenities in their designs. They pride themselves on implementing sustainable development principles and try to create inviting viewing and socializing areas in every build.

The company actually designed and built Rob Dyrdek’s fantasy factory and many other skateparks such as Soma Skatepark and Ed Benedict Plaza to name a few.

  3. Spohn ranch’s designs are the absolute worst in the country, and they seriously don’t care about the communities that they are working with. they are leeches sucking the industry dry void of creativity and progressiveness. I can’t say enough terrible things about them.
