Go Skate in Philly!

Part 1: Skate the Foundry

Over the spring holiday weekend, we took a skate trip down to Philly. I had such a fun time that I decided to highlight some of the fun spots we visited in a 3-part series!

First up on our trip was a visit to our friends at Skate the Foundry – a fellow skate school hosting classes and camps as well as open skate at their rad indoor park.

The space consists of three distinct skate areas so you can float from session to session. Walking in the front door there’s a small shop area with an awesome mini bowl behind it. This was my favorite area of the whole park. Kind of like the mini ramp version of a wooden bowl with lots of lines and fun corners.

Next to this is the street area with lots of room to push and roll around on the bigger ramps on the far sides and smaller portable ramps for different configurations. Lastly, tucked to the side of the street area is a room entirely filled with a big mini ramp. Probably close to 6 feet tall, I’m sure this ramp sees some serious action from transition skaters not afraid of heights. If you’re in the area check their schedule and catch an open skate to try out their fun space!
