There’s a skatepark near me that is still bumping. All ages, all times of day. There is even this guy who lives in his car that comes out an practices DJing out there. It’s an awesome little community.
My city dismantled our little skate park around 2022, and my wife and I were kinda sad to see it go.
The city then built a whole new one in its place that’s at least ten times the size with lots of lighting. We see tons of skaters of all ages there all the time. It’s really cool and I’m really happy they did it.
Yeah they do. At least, I see teens hanging around the skate park in my town. They never do anything though, but last week I saw someone doing tricks on a skate board. Must’ve been an outsider.
By the way, are kids still skating? I haven’t seen any sk8erbois since like 2012

Our local park is also pretty awesome. Everyone is super supportive.
Old heads getting back into it, highly skilled people, high schoolers, all giving each other props.
Even kids are respected, taught about the lineup, and given pointers, instead of being dismissed as just some obstacle.
As an old head with kids, I was so pleasantly surprised that it was so welcoming.

You should reread the parent comment…
no read! only comment
Yes. You probably just don’t see them on the streets as much, because concrete parks are being build everywhere.
It’s now part of the Olympics and a lot more girls skate too these days, so the sk8erboi stereotype doesn’t really fit very well any more.
It kinda became an Olympics sport, so I think things are going pretty well
