Hey Team,
Just a heads-up from Jane, your trusty organizer, to let you know about Leeside Skatepark in Vancouver. Nestled under the Cassiar St. Connector, right where East Hastings St meets Highway 1, this spot has got something special. It carries the spirit of Lee Matasi, an artist and skateboarder whose memory lives on right here.
Leeside's got this 7m high, 49m long tunnel that’s evolved into a sweet spot for skateboarding, BMXing, and occasionally, some pretty epic events. The park is stacked with about 12 hand-crafted obstacles like mini-ramps, grind poles, and quarter pipes to keep your sessions interesting.
Jane loves how this place has turned into a community hub. Whether you’re shredding or cycling, there’s always someone around to share tips and tricks. For those looking to up their game, they’ve even got lessons and classes.
And it’s not just about daily rides—Jane’s organizing some cool events and competitions that bring together folks from all over Vancouver. The vibe here is all about celebrating the local skateboarding and cycling scene.
So, whether you’re a veteran or new to the board, Leeside Skatepark is all about welcoming you and fostering that tight-knit community feel. Get down here and join the fun!
Catch you at the park,
Jane
