Description

While the Bro Bowl might have been the first public skatepark, Kona Skatepark is the world’s oldest skatepark. Since 1977, Kona Skatepark has celebrated over 45 years of memories – featuring everything from some of skate history’s most illustrious skate contests, to skate camps, lessons, and skate shows. Kona skatepark is a maze of bows, snake runs, vert ramps, ledges, and ramps, and eventually, the park installed today’s more contemporary skate structures. But Kona began as a construct of colorful bowls, pools, pump tracks, quarter pipes, and snake runs that you have seen in vintage Rodney Mullen and Tony Hawk footage. In fact, speaking of Tony Hawk, Kona skatepark is often credited as inventing the modern Vert Ramp – so without Kona, there would be no Tony Hawk 900. To this day, Kona holds the title of the largest private skatepark by the Guinness Book of World Records. That being said, this skatepark is not a public skatepark, and you will have to pay to skate it. $10 for two admissions is a small price to pay to literally drop in and skate history.
