1. RideMyPark: the best skatepark app overall
RideMyPark is the community map of skateparks, street spots and pump tracks, with 30,000+ spots in 80 countries. It was started by riders: the first version was a list of every skatepark in France, shared on a YouTube channel in 2017. Each spot has its type, its material and its features, from bowls and mini ramps to rails, ledges, stairs and curbs. You filter the map by discipline (skate, BMX, scooter, roller) and by feature, and one tap opens directions in Waze or Maps. Skate shops and riding events sit on the same map, so you see the contest next weekend and the shop around the corner. On the web, "Can I ride tonight?" gives you a yes or no from the hourly forecast, with the nearest rideable spots. You can add a spot in two minutes and keep your favorite spots in lists. Riders rate it 4.6/5 on the App Store and Google Play.
Built for AI assistants too. RideMyPark has an MCP server, which none of the other apps here offers: you can plug it into Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor and ask "find me a bowl near Lyon" in plain words. Every page also exists in Markdown for AI tools.
Coming next on RideMyPark. We take the time to build each feature right for riders, instead of rushing out a copy of what other apps do.
- Sessions, very soon: pick a spot and a time, choose who sees it (friends, invite only or everyone), share the link, and check in when you arrive to see who is already riding. A first group of riders is testing it now.
- A trick tracker for every discipline: over 100 tricks for skateboard, aggressive inline, freestyle scooter and BMX, from Beginner to Impossible, level by level. We are working on it now.
- Lessons with instructors in France, planned for 2027: we are talking with skate instructors to build it with them.
Best for: any rider, any discipline, in any country. Get it on iOS and Android or open the web map.
2. Smap: an alternative for learning tricks
Smap is a skate app built around progression. Its App Store listing claims 33,000 skateparks and spots, 260 trick tutorials, weekly challenges, duels and a leaderboard. The full learning paths and extra challenges need a paid Premium subscription, and the free version shows ads. Riding events are not part of its map.
Best for: riders who want tutorials and challenges today. A trick tracker for every discipline is on its way to RideMyPark.
3. MYSKATE: an alternative in the UK
MYSKATE is the app of Skateboard GB, published by Skateboard England. It covers 2,000+ UK skateparks, plus street spots, shops and coaches, and tracks your sessions. It is only on the UK App Store, so coverage outside the UK is thin.
Best for: skaters who only ride in the UK.
4. Skatedex: check-ins and clips
Skatedex is a newer iPhone app, released in 2026. It combines a skatepark directory with check-ins, a skate log and a clip editor. Its website lists 3,500+ skateparks.
Best for: logging sessions and editing clips.
5. Ramp Map: simple filters, old data
Ramp Map lists 9,000+ skateparks with filters for lit, free or covered parks. The app has not been updated since September 2019, so new parks are missing.
Best for: a quick look for a covered park, if you accept old data.
6. ShredMap: street spots only
ShredMap is an iPhone map of street spots with photos, difficulty and safety notes. Its community is still small: 6 ratings on the US App Store.
Best for: street skaters in cities where it has users.
7. The Skatepark Project: US parks
The Skatepark Project app comes from the non-profit founded by Tony Hawk. It shows US skateparks with bathrooms, shade, lights or supervision. It has not been updated since March 2022.
Best for: US skaters who check amenities before they go.

How we chose
RideMyPark is our app, and we put it first because it covers the most: every discipline, every spot type, shops and events, on mobile, on the web and in AI assistants. For the other apps, we only used what each developer publishes on its store listing or website, checked on October 23, 2026. Spot counts are the numbers each app claims. We left out Google Maps: it finds parks, but it does not tell you what is in them.
