Zero Gravity Skatepark — Attraction in Waterford Township

Concerned parent perspective...

Three points:

1. I was at the understanding that Saturday nights from 6pm to 10pm were middle/high school ONLY as that's how it appeared to be organized and advertised by staff. It's not... If I had foreknowledge that non-employee adults would have been skating with my children, I would have never brought them. Because of point number two...

2. Little supervision. They appear to be staffed by two individuals. Both are friendly, but neither are in the park areas themselves, or at least often enough to command respectful attendance from attendees. Leading to point number three...

3. A bit of chaos. Bullying, foul language and rampant violation of Zero Gravity's own rules. When looking at the skate park side, approximately half of the participants had no helmet.

I wouldn't recommend any parent bring their children here to be left unsupervised. Rather plan on hanging out and keeping an eye on your children, because I'm not convinced the staff will or honestly can...

I am highly doubtful we'll return, but I wish...

This park has quite a lot going for it. It's staff is extremely nice, facilities are pretty modern. However, I cannot recommend that people skate/ride here due to the quality of the ramps. There are major defects in the ramps which create an uneven surface due to how they were designed and assembled.

The transition radius are inconsistent and can cause you to fall when riding both the mini ramp and half pipe. The pyramid is also way too steep.

I did talk to the staff and they're trying to fix these issues but it will require a long and major overhaul of the ramps, ribs, top sheets, etc. they only have one guy working on it. Pics attached...
