Spot Description:

Very challenging home-brew concrete park. Not for beginning skaters or those with shaky tranny skills.

Channel Street consists of three sections: one is a stretched bowl containing the famous doorway (see Colin Provost's part in This Is My Element) and tranny of various heights, mostly going into vert. The second section is a bowl halfway built around an overpass pillar. This one has even more vert + a tombstone and is not for the faint-hearted. Pool coping can be found all around. The last section is partially completed as of August 2008, and has a shallow and steep pool-like bowl cascading down into a deeper bowl with mellower transitions but less flat-bottom.

The outside of the park also has several obstacles, including a bench, a curb to quarter pipe (see: Deawon Song), a wavy kicker and the outside of the doorway (see: Tony Trujillo).

There is no supervision, entry fee or pad laws. Help keep it that way, so respect the park and its builders. Props to the skaters and builders who've made this happen.

An excellent park for tranny dogs and the closest you'll get to Oregon-esque concrete parks in the Los Angeles area.
