Description
Rattlesnake Mountain Skatepark (aka: Mira Loma Skatepark), is a odd combination of some awesome designs and piss-poor very smooth concrete finishing. The word I got from the local skaters is a local skater built The skate park a small amount years ago. Many design changes and several different contractors later, you have the final result. 98% of Nevada skateparks are falling apart due to poor construction. Unions have the power in Nevada, so a different union will handle each construction phase. The Rattlesnake Mtn park is about a year old, but from the look of the concrete, it looks 50 years old!
The skate park does have some good features. The snake run is very awesome and the street area is adequate and The skate park does have a small amount bowls and a pool, but the bowls and pool has major flaws. First, the bowls transitions are kinked and the corners in the square bowl are sunken. The crete is falling apart below the coping (for grinding) on a small amount of the bowls. Major cracks are forming due to settling throughout The skate park.
The pool… well it is deep and quick (5 Ft. in the shallow and 9 Ft. in the deep), but the waterfall is super steep… too steep to drop in from the shallow and hit head on. You need to hit the wall over the waterfall or drop into the deep end. It does have a small amount kinks, but nothing too serious. A couple of holes were created from those darn paperboys bike pegs! The pool does have real tile, but sports steel coping.
Free, lit until 10pm. No pad nanny to harsh your mellow…
