Lathrop Skate Park

This park is totes awesome sauce but they gotta add lights so you can skate at night fr

This has changed a great deal in the last year.Previously, there was a concrete slab with broken, rotting pre-fab structures on top of it. Screws were protruding and it was all a bit dangerous.A few months ago, they demolished the whole thing, and they put together a inbuilt concrete skate park/skate plaza meant for street riders.It seems better than adequate with rails and gaps and little quarter pipes to keep the flow going.Skaters seemed to be getting accustomed to it, certainly better than they did with the old skate park in this location.We could only hope that the city of Manteca would do something to update their skate park.

It is what it is, i was part of the team that got lathrop its first skate park and im not to happy with. What they turned it into. The whole reason it was a wood park was so we could change it around from time to time. But instead of putting in a whole new wood park. They turned it into a crappy cement park. Needles to say, i dont like this new layout and i think they could of done better. It is now wasted space with so much potential and the city wasted money on it.

Cool park to skate but nothing to wrap your whole day around. The rain warpage makes it a bit difficult to skate. I personally wasn't feeling that park, because I had expected something completely different, but glad to take some detailed photos for other new visitors!

It was clean and nice and very busy. Park has a great play area, skate park, and slot of open area to play. We luv it!
