The Orlando Vans Skatepark opened to the public at 8 a.m. on Saturday morning and was soon packed to the gills with locals who wanted to be the first to explore the ins and outs of the park. The guys had a great time signing autographs, throwing our t-shirts and generally hanging with the several thousand who came out that first day. It seemed that the consensus was pretty universal: "This place is rad!" From the fully stocked pro-shop to the ascending four through eight-foot mini-pipes to the bowl in the outdoor park to Doe Boy, there's something for everyone. If you're in the area, please stop by the new Vans Skatepark at Festival Bay at International Drive .... you won't be disappointed.
