About the park
Oaklands Skatepark, also known locally as Yardley Skatepark, is a free outdoor concrete park on Oaklands Recreation Ground in Birmingham. Gravity Skateparks built it in 2015 next to an older metal ramp set, which was taken out around 2017, leaving a mixed park-and-street layout with an open bowl, kickers, banks, rails, ledges and jumps. It works for BMX, skateboards, scooters and inline skates, giving newer riders room to learn while the bowl and jump lines keep more confident riders busy.
