Rattlesnake Mountain Skatepark (aka: Mira Loma Skatepark), is a odd mix of some cool designs and piss-poor concrete finishing. The word I got from the locals is a local skater designed the park a few years ago. Many design changes and several different contractors later, you have the final result. 98% of Nevada skateparks are falling apart due to poor construction. Unions have the power in Nevada, so a different union will handle each construction phase. The Rattlesnake Mtn park is about a year old, but from the look of the concrete, it looks 50 years old!
The park does have some good features. The snake run is very cool and the street area is adequate and the park does have a few bowls and a pool, but the bowls and pool has major flaws. First, the bowls trannys are kinked and the corners in the square bowl are sunken. The crete is falling apart below the coping on a few of the bowls. Major cracks are forming due to settling throughout the park.
The pool... well it is deep and fast (5 ft in the shallow and 9 ft in the deep), but the waterfall is super steep... too steep to drop in from the shallow and hit head on. You need to hit the wall over the waterfall or drop into the deep end. It does have a few kinks, but nothing too serious. A couple of holes were created from those damn paperboys bike pegs! The pool does have real tile, but sports steel coping.
Free, lit until 10pm. No pad nanny to harsh your mellow...
