At long last, a TRUE concrete skatepark has opened in Puerto Rico!  I have heard stories of other ones that were open in the 1970s, but so far I have no hard evidence on that.

This new one is located in Aguadilla, a town in the northwest coast of Puerto Rico, at the old facilities of Ramey AFB.  I hope some pros come and visit and ride soon!  So far, I do not know if bikes are welcome... but who cares!

Here's the newspaper report, in Spanish:

Ok, I had a chance about 2 weeks ago to go to the park, but without my bike.  There is a sign that states it is solely for skating (so it's more of a challenge then!), and it has many lines that ar rideable.  It has a spine, a deep bowl, ledges for grinds, a shallower bowl, and is all concrete.  There is a private security guard and a municipal employee (he looked like a skater) that should prove bothersome during the day... but a late night session should be fun!  I did not bring my camera, but i will take some pics next time I visit.
