ATLiens love to roll. Any day of the week you can find a crew rolling the Woodward Skate Park at Discover Mills mall. Tuesday nights have become the main skate of the week, but from the looks of this edit by Richard Williams Fridays are hot too. Not only does Atlanta have a huge indoor park, Gwinnett County has built over 5 outdoor cement skate parks in the past few years. Pickneyville Park, Mountain Park Park, Ronald Reagan Park, Dashong Park and others. Gwinnett has plans for an additional five parks to be built over the next two years. Hamilton Mill Park should be completed by spring. This park has a vast array of bowls for your skating pleasure. We’ve heard that Rhodes Jordan Park is next on the list to have a skate park added to their venue. Don’t forget the Factory Skate Park down in Newnan, GA and Progressive Skate Park in Canton too. Clearly Atlanta has a healthy rollerblading scene. Here is the link for Gwinnett County Parks.
