The Triad gives many opportunities for kids and adults alike to learn, test their skills, and try new tricks at both paid and free skate parks in the area. What is also unique is that cities like Greensboro have both indoor and outdoor skate park options, while areas like Winston-Salem and Lexington have recently broke ground and created brand new and expansive skate parks that are kid-friendly and ride friendly (playing host to skates, scooters, bikes, and boards)
