Van Dyke Skatepark, Fairfax Virgina
WHERE: 3730 Old Lee Hwy, Fairfax, Virginia 20004
WHAT: Metal ramps on an outdoor, concrete surface. This park has a 4 foot mini ramp, various banks and quarter pipes, a box, and a few rails.
GOOD:No one seems to enforce any of the rules, but if they did, “Bicycles, Scooters or Rollerblades are prohibited in the Skate Park” is one of them. The times I have been there, it has been pretty empty.
BAD: It’s kind of generic.
PADS: Supposedly, all pads are required, but I’ve never seen anybody even wear a helmet.
FREE OR PAY: free
DIRECTIONS: google maps
OVERALL: It’s a well-made, run-of-the-mill park. Pretty fun, but has no real surprises.
