About Us:
Opened in 2012, 11,000-square-foot Brandon Skate Par built by Team Pain, funded and operated by Hillsborough County.
• Entrance to the park will be free throughout the summer.
• After that, the skate fee is $4 per day. The cost for an annual pass is $150.
• Hillsborough County has a reciprocal agreement with the City of Tampa. Annual passes will be honored at all Hillsborough County and City of Tampa skate parks.
• All skaters must wear helmets and complete a waiver.
Bowl:
An intermediate/professional bowl with rounded walls, two hips and two general depths. The shallow end is 6 feet deep and just under-vert; the deep end is more than 9 feet deep, with 1.5 feet of vert. The entire bowl has pool coping and tile.
Obstacle Street:
Consists of two main levels that split the park into two sections.
The lower section has a few street-plaza elements, including a granite bench set at an angle; curved ledges; a cone-pole jam; a manual pad; a small, but long, set of four stairs; a brick-stamped bank with a flat bar on top; and a handrail and flat rail. The area also sports a very wide quarter-pipe, with steel coping, including a 12-foot pool coping extension; a smaller pyramid with a bull-nose flat rail; and a steep bank and hip.
The lower section is connected to the upper section with a series of banks, including a step-up that links to an escalating transition hip.
Transition Elements:
Six-foot corner quarter-pipe leading to a long and low A-shaped quarter-pipe, ending at a series of moguls located throughout.
A third level takes skaters to the bowl, an area also connected with quarter-pipes and more moguls, ranging in height from 2.5 to 5 feet.
