Mira Mesa Skatepark
Mira Mesa Skatepark is an in-ground concrete street plaza-style skatepark inside Mira Mesa Community Park, San Diego. It blends street-style and flow zones—think MM Hubba stairs, Euro gaps, a pump-track loop, and more—built for skateboards, scooters, BMX bikes, roller/inline skates and wheelchairs. There are no separate bowls…a bummer for those of us who live in the area and skate bowls.

Overview
The skatepark is under construction as part of the Phase II of the 28-acre Mira Mesa Community Park redevelopment alongside a new 14-lane aquatic complex and upgraded play areas. Backed by $55 million in city funding, construction kicked off in September 2024 and is slated to wrap by mid-2026.
According to planning documents, the plaza is designed as an open, flowing concrete course where riders can link transfers between the street and flow sections without dismounting.
Street-Style Features
- MM Hubba stair set & grind ledges that nod to local high-school spots
- Shade-structure grind ledges mirroring iconic Mira Mesa/Serra High architecture
- Classic street & Euro gaps, an A-frame, flat rails, hips, and manual pads—ideal for tech lines and filming.
Flow-Style Features
- A pump-track loop encircles the plaza for continuous momentum.
- Quarter pipes and a fly-out zone feed into a street spine and channel gaps before ending at a multi-option fun box.
The design’s “all wheels” ethos means curbless edges, generous deck widths, and ADA-friendly grades so beginners and adaptive riders feel at home next to seasoned skaters and BMXers.
Once complete, Mira Mesa Skatepark will fill a long-standing gap for North City skaters, giving them a skatepark without having to trek to Rancho Peñasquitos or Poway – albeit one that’s missing the larger transition features (bowls, snakeruns, etc) common in most modern skateparks.
