Skatewave Landscape Structures



Skatewave: Engineered to Ride

Background:

Skatewave® is a product of Landscape Structures Inc, an internationally recognized manufacturer of recreational equipment located in Delano, Minn. Founded in 1971, Landscape Structures is known both for groundbreaking design and exceptional engineering. Dedicated to developing better ways to help kids grow and learn through physical activity, Landscape Structures created Skatewave modular community skatepark systems to serve youth who are ready for new challenges.

There are over 13 million of them in North America alone—kids who do their sport in the street because there’s nowhere else for them to go. We believe a well-planned recreational skatepark can play an important role in quality of life for young riders and their communities.
