The main feature of Brothers Skatepark, as it’s called for shorthand, is two massive open bowls and the smaller deep pocket bowl that the park contains. The two main open bowls take up a significant portion of the overall 40,000 square feet that the park has to offer.

The first larger open bowl has plenty of coping to grind, walls to ride, and even a large over-vert capsule where skaters can try to gain enough speed to get inverted for a short period of time.

The second bowl is a bit smaller than the first, however, it does get deeper and although it is open on one end, the bowl contains two distinct pocket sections that more closely resemble a traditional circular and pill-shaped bowl. 

The last bowl is quite small, however, it is deep and resembles one of the died out swimming pools where skateboarding was born in the 1970s in backyards across Southern California.

One of the nice features of the street plaza section is the tree cover and how the vegetation is intertwined effortlessly into the park itself. Skate among the pines as you hit a few different flat rails, launch yourself off the kicker, or grind one of the many ledges. The trees also provide some nice shade and some relief from the afternoon heat to catch a drink of water or to sit and talk with your friends.
