Another year has come and gone and our skatepark directory is growing thanks to skateparks you have submitted. Keep the info coming and we'll do our best to keep the skatepark list updated.
2005 was an eventful year for us here at FreeSkateparks.com. We officially launched our website in April with the help of BC Surf and Skate, FEF Recordings and Yard Rock Records. We've built our skatepark database up to almost 100 free skateparks and a few pay skateparks as well. The site development is complete and we're focused on getting worldwide exposure and providing useful information on local skateparks and skateboarding. The majority of visitors come from the United States, of course, but our site is currently being viewed in Japan, Australia, Canada, Israel, Chile and Italy.
Our goal for 2006 is to triple the number of skateparks we have listed and get more photos of existing skateparks. We're also looking to add more worldwide skateparks to let the international skateboard community know we care about their skateparks as well.
Enough banter, on to the good stuff. I'd like to announce a new contest open to any participants, new or old. Enter to win great prizes. Here's the scoop: Starting January 1st, 2006, submit any new skatepark and you'll be automatically entered into a drawing to be held on April 30, 2006, our 1 Year Birthday.
Every time you submit a skatepark, your name will go into the pot. The more skateparks you tell us about, the better chance you have of winning. Winners will be notified via email and must confirm acceptance via email in order to collect prizes. Easy! Help skateboarders around the world find your local skateparks. Add them to our skatepark database and win cool stuff at the same time! We'll have contest rules and prizes listed after New Year's so check back here for more info after the holidays.

We've been adding skateparks as we find them but we still need more. If you have skateparks in your area send your info in. Skateboarders all around the world are waiting to skate your park or skateparks you know of.
Skateboarding has come a long way in the last few years and I'm glad it's as big as it is today. Public skateparks are popping up all over the place and its a truly amazing thing. Honestly, it should have happened a long time ago.
Peace,

May 02, 2005 REVISITING THE FREESKATEPARKS.COM LAUNCH PARTY
Our Launch Party on Sat, April 30 went off like the spectacular event it was meant to be. We had a great turnout and despite some small technical issues, all the artists sounded great and represented FREESKATEPARKS.COM to tha fullest. I'm sure those who walked away with free skateboard and stuff (decks, wheels, posters and CD's) were surprisingly stoked.
Thanks to all who attended and helped us kick-start FREESKATEPARKS.COM. Extra special thanks go out to EgoED, CoveOne, and Cenik of StillCatchinWreck, Distrakt, Working Class and Gunner, who all put on stellar shows. I've seen SCW and Distrakt enough times to know that these performances were most definitely monumental and showcased these cats at their very best. People were honestly amazed at Distrakt cruising around the bar with his wireless mic, kicking sick rhymes to his hard-as-nails beats. SCW displayed energy unlike any other and the crowd was certainly digging the positive vibe.
Thanks again to all who came and helped launch FREESKATEPARKS.COM.
Peace,
