Cobden Skatepark can be found on the corner of McKenzie St and Station St, Cobden (opposite the CFA fire station). The concrete skatepark is super versatile with heaps of small quarters, banks, ledges, euro gaps and even two epic feature bowls. The small skate bowl is a standard 3/4 bowl, that flows into the street section of the skatepark. The larger bowl is isolated by itself and is much deeper (roughly 7 ft). The larger bowl is shaped like an uneven square, but is super easy to find a line and pump around. The skatepark was designed and built by Convic Skateparks and is yet another rad park for the Corangmite Shire and an epic contribution to the small town of Cobden.

As a result we had to wait a couple of hours for rural RACV to come and help get us started. This was no problem at all for the Skater Maps team as we were able to continue skating the rad park and dial down our lines on both of the skate bowls.

Paynesville Skatepark
The old Paynesville Skatepark has been updated over the years. Once upon a time, it had the existing banks and transitions on either side with an ugly steel feature in the middle. They have since replaced the steel with contemporary street obstacles, including a flat...
Freshbrook Avenue Ledges
Truganina is proud to boast of yet another skatepark. The street-orientated skate facility as its name implies features a number of ledges. The ledges are on the larger side and would probably appeal to scooters and BMX riders as much if not more so than skateboarders...
