Washington DC Maloof Skate Park Now Open

Written by



Last week, the Maloof Money Cup Washington DC Skate Park opened to the general public. Designed by Pro Skater Geoff Rowley and Joe Ciaglia's team at California Skateparks, the 15,000-square-foot skate park is the first major skate park in Washington, D.C. and is inspired by Freedom Plaza and the architecture up and down Pennsylvania Avenue.

"It was important for us to take design elements from real D.C. skate spots and try to replicate them and hopefully complement them as much as possible," said Rowley. "The local skaters will recognize some of these influences like the Freedom Plaza Ledges and the Golden Rail made famous by legendary locals like Pepe Martinez, Chris Hall and many more original D.C. rippers," said Rowley.Andrew Reynolds winning Maloof Money Cup
