The Helena skatepark is the second oldest concrete park in the state. It was finished in the fall of 2001 and since then has become pretty outdated. Because of a rediculous safety regulation the quarter pipes fall somewhere between 4 and 5 feet. The banks and pyramid have very mellow transition, and the coping is set in so far that it's almost non-existent. The park is very skatable, and has a couple of nice little street features, but it's pretty tame overall.
