About

Team Pain is a national design/build company specializing in custom skate parks and structures with over twenty years of experience.

Team Pain is the only custom design/build company, in the industry, specializing in three mediums: Concrete Skate Parks, Wood Skate Parks and Specialty Structures for Professional Riders.

Team Pain is comprised of skaters who possess extensive design and build knowledge gleaned from years of personal experience. This knowledge allows us to create skate structures that inspire a skater to constantly improve his or her skills. We design and construct creative and challenging structures with an overall flow that provides a multitude of paths, ensuring continuous momentum with a good balance of moderate and advanced sections, appealing to different skating levels and styles.

Skateboarding has progressed into different disciplines and Team Pain has paralleled this progression. Skate parks have evolved into simulations of authentic skating terrain found in backyard pools, concrete ditches, streets and plazas. Our continuous dedication to skating allows us to continually be at the forefront of skate park development and to foresee the progress of skating, itself.

Countless awards have been conferred upon us because of our experience and accomplishments in the skate park industry. The result is an exclusive group of experienced skaters with modern design philosophies and unsurpassed craftsmanship. From top professional skaters to recreational users, any individual who experiences a Team Pain structure can enjoy personal advancement on our innovative and challenging structures.
