Beautiful skatepark. Unfortunately there are no posted rules so you get the following:…read more 1.) dogs running loose with their owners 2.) parents allowing their kids (under the age of 10) free roam the advanced section like it's a playground 3.) people using motorized wheels in the park (for example one wheels) Until the city steps in and does something the park is basically un-skateable unless you go early in the morning (8 AM) or late at night (10 PM). Parents reading these reviews... I cannot stress this enough. This is NOT a playground. This is an advanced course for extreme wheel sports. This is not the place to let your 6 year old roll around on their new $20 3-wheeled scooter that is not intended to be used at a skatepark. Until your kids learn how to share, understand the flow of traffic, and have proper equipment... this is not the place to bring them. Take them to a smaller skatepark with less traffic and less advanced obstacles, teach them flow of traffic and the concept of turn based runs. It's only a matter of time until a child gets seriously hurt at this skate park due to irresponsible parents and an innocent, responsible individual enjoying the park gets sued because of it.

Great park! It's almost too nice of a place…read more They have a variety of ways to get your experience up! The park is nearly two miles away from downtown garland but not far away the heart of the garland folks. Now this is my first time at a skating park and I was not disappointed. Sure there were some lack of rules but it surely didn't change my nor my nephews experience of having a great time. Let alone it was more of a learning pleasure to have taught him the rights and wrongs of a skate park. Remember y'all a skate park isn't just rainbows and sunshine, if you seen any televised stories about them chances are its almost true. Don't be startled by the fear of discomfort, remember everyone there is looking for the same thing, a place to belong. I hope this review finds pleasure in any who wanted is or wanting to check it out.

The Edge Skate Park - A skaters paradise.

The Edge is a bowl skater's paradise. It's basically a giant bowl with 2 bowls off to the side. If…read moreyou're there to skate transition, you'll love it. If you're looking to skate street or get a nice line going, go to another park. There's not much of a street section, minus a couple stair sets and a small area that has a box and rail. This park seems to cater to the BMX crowd with the large scale of the tranny, hips, and transfers. When I visited, it was midweek during school hours so I can't comment on how busy it gets, but it had a chill vibe, plenty of parking, but trash and empty bottles were everywhere.

Review from a Mom's perspective. I feel comfortable brining my teens here. I don't see any drugs or…read morealcohol. Although I've seen people smoking- they are always outside the park. The park closes in inclement weather so you don't have to be the bad guy & say "no" to your kids skating in the rain. The park closes if there is graffiti, so kids tend to keep it clean. There isn't much viewer seating. I bring a folding lawn chair & a good book since the kids are always here for a while. As far as the kids- there are plenty of cool ramps & jumps to keep them entertained for hours, restrooms, water fountain, call button for emergencies & a place to get air conditioning. All skill levels welcome- I've seen 3yr olds through 20-something's skating. I'd give 5 stars if it had more seating & shade for observers/parents.

I love how this park is kind of set back from the road. My little enjoys riding her scooter up and…read moredown the runs. The regular skaters are friendly and all share the runs, taking turns and watching out for the smaller ones. There's a playground and a restroom behind this skate park, so you have plenty of outdoor places to spend time.

We used this as our starting point, and parking spot, for a walk. I didn't know Roanoke had a skate…read morepark, and neither did Yelp, so I'm adding it. It was a cold January evening, and even so, there were quite a few skaters making use of this great amenity. Seems to have all the necessary areas a skate park needs, for plenty of opportunities to twist, sprain or break something. Lots of ramps and rails. Also a half pipe and a "swimming pool." We watched people drop in for a while, then went for dinner across the street at Benjamin's Pizza Kitchen & Bar - https://www.yelp.com/biz/benjamins-pizza-kitchen-and-bar-roanoke Details from the URL : "Bowl" transition/turnaround 7 stair with hubba ledge and handrail Front and backside hook ledges Pool-style bowl with pool coping and tiles Slappy/manual pad feature "Spoon" transition Up-gap feature with hubba ledge and handrail Low quarterpipe with inset curved ledge Miniramp with extension and quarterpipe/bank hip Wheelchair ramp with slappy bank, ledge and "knife" rail I did not see water fountains, or a bathroom, but maybe it was at the adjacent Cannon Parkway Park, which has facilities for soccer, tennis, basketball & volleyball. Bottom line: Be safe! PS. There is more parking, at the Cannon Parkway Park, if you are nervous about parking where a skateboard might fly into your car... Kidding, sort of, it's fairly protected, but there are still skaters, so keep an eye out.

Great park for dogs to play…read more Cars broken into in the parking lot - don't leave any valuables showing in your car - I watched a couple stand waiting for the police for over an hour to report the crime Some weird dog owners who lose their minds who could stand to read a book about dogs. Everyone is an expert even if they are not. People go buy $8 squeaky balls and expect all the other dogs not to want to steal it. Where do dogs come from? Wolves - high pitched squeaks sound like prey animals. Dogs come to investigate based on instinct derived from wolves Most of the people stand in an area smaller than the small dog park and then they ignorantly wonder why their dogs get into scuffles. Pack mentality 30-40% of dog owners don't leash their dogs from the car to the entry gate. 50% of dog owners pick up their dogs poop. Yelling and screaming only makes dogs more agitated. Read a book before you come in No trees when the water is on it trickles out of the fountain. Someone abandoned a dog one night and the park ranger ( who drives around aimlessly) and the Lewisville animal shelter wouldn't come and take it to the shelter because it was after hours and the animal wasn't sick or injured. They said to leave the dog in the park overnight and it was below freezing. If your dog is unsure of itself don't bring it to a dog park unless you understand how hierarchy works...use your phone your stuck to all day and research dog behavior.

Loved how big the dog park is, seems like a lot of activities for sports and the skate park looked…read morepretty cool
