The Powell Parks and Recreation Department is thrilled to announce the start of its Skateboarding Summer Camps at Adventure Park. Designed for children ages 6 to 14, these camps promise a summer filled with fun, learning, and skill-building on wheels. With sessions running weekly through July, there’s plenty of opportunity for young skaters to hone their skills and make new friends.
Building the Basics
The Beginner Skateboarding camp focuses on the fundamentals of skateboarding, emphasizing safety and basic tricks. Young skaters will learn essential skills such as pushing, turning, back-side and front-side kick-turns, ollies, drop-ins, and both bank and ramp riding. The primary goal is to ensure participants have fun while gaining confidence and control over their skateboards. This camp also teaches children how to navigate the skate park’s obstacles and features safely and correctly.
Taking Skills to the Next Level
For those who have completed the beginner course or are already comfortable at the skate park, the Intermediate Skateboarding camp is the perfect next step. This program is designed to enhance existing skills and introduce new tricks. Participants will practice ollieing over obstacles, basic flip tricks, grinds, and transitions, using the skate park to its full potential. The emphasis remains on safety, skill development, and, of course, having a blast on their boards.
