SPOTTED: Lost Malaysian Skatepark

A Concrete Beast Hiding In The Jungle

Photos by Rich Armitage


A Lost Malaysian Skatepark…? These are the things of legend! A vert ramp hiding in the jungle, with a bowl and mini ramp too. Long neglected, overgrown with grass and ferns, this is a truly lost skatepark.


Photographer Rich Armitage had this to say:

“I randomly came across this in the middle of a forest on a trip to Malaysia back in September, I couldn’t believe it, there was a vert ramp with a roll in, a smaller ramp and a bowl behind.”


We wonder how long it’s been waiting there, untouched. From the photos it looks like a decent clean up and concrete patching operation wouldn’t be impossible.

Spotted on SIDEWALK.
