Whether you're a skateboarder or not, these skateboard parks will have people questioning what can't be turned into a skateboarders haven these days. Some are even going so far as to transform entire houses into ramp-filled abodes so that the owners can wake up and strap on the skateboard instantly.
Other designs take on a more aquatic theme, with some being built on the ocean. The good thing about these designs is that the fall won't be too painful for those that go overboard by accident (granted as long as the current isn't too strong, this could be the better option).
For those that love to skateboard, these skateboard parks will provide a few ideas as to how to transform a basic setting into a sporting paradise.
