Hey guys! George here.

Back in June 2026 I pulled up to the Liberty, NY Skatepark for a quick session as it was near a spot we were camping.

The design looked a little funky and there was one Google Maps review basically tearing the park to shreds but I was definitely intruiged.

But my honest take after skating it: I was pleasantly surprised.

The main critique in the Google Maps review is correct: the flow of the park is a bit off because one side sends you too fast, the other too slow.

But still, you can make it work—I had a lot of fun skating here, and kept having more and more fun the longer I stayed.

If I lived in the area, I’d probably skate there all the time.

The main concrete feels like it was poured by general contractors—sidewalk vibes—whereas the pre-fabricated skate obstacles are much smoother.

The brick bank, which appears a bit silly to the eye, ended up being one of my favorite obstacles. It opens up a ton of creative possibilities—quick ollie up, trick on, trick off.

The quarter pipes have only 4 or 5 inches of flat-deck on top, making them a bit precarious, but definitely skate-able. The coping is also some kind of aluminum material that made my 50-50’s a bit sticky.

The down rail and hubba? Not my thing, but they looked fun if that’s your style.

What really won me over was the overall vibe: the park is in a big open grassy area, with cute small town energy, a cemetery in the background, zero pressure.

The kind of spot where you can sit on the side, breathe some air, and just exist for a minute. That goes a long way for me.

One more thing worth mentioning is that I found out from some of the locals that this is a memorial skatepark, built in honor of someone from the town who passed away from a brain tumor his senior year of high school.

Liberty Skatepark: a bit off, but workable, and a lot more fun than I expected.

Go skate it.

And I’ll catch you guys in the next one.
