Gabe Nesbitt Skatepark

Gabe Nesbitt Skatepark is a 30,000-square-foot concrete skatepark located within Gabe Nesbitt Community Park in McKinney, Texas. With a combination of expansive street terrain and multiple bowls, the park offers a wide variety of lines and features for skaters of all skill levels.

The park's transition terrain includes three bowls with different shapes and depths, along with hips, spines, pump bumps, and flowing transitions. A pool-style bowl with pool coping and a Texas-style ditch provide additional terrain for skaters who enjoy carving and more challenging transition skating.

The extensive street plaza features rails, ledges, hubbas, stairs, quarter pipes, banks, and manual pads. One of the park's standout features is a four-sided obelisk surrounded by quarter pipes, creating a unique centerpiece and multiple lines through the plaza.

With terrain ranging from beginner-friendly features to challenging bowls and larger transitions, Gabe Nesbitt is well suited for a full day of skating. The surrounding 160-acre community park also provides restrooms, trails, shaded seating, athletic facilities, and plenty of parking.

The City of McKinney allows skateboards, scooters, and inline skates; bicycles are not permitted. The park closes when conditions are wet or rainy.
