I can't tell if Kansas City's Amy Park is the coolest or weirdest skatepark I've seen in a while, although something is telling me it's the coolest. Disagree all you want, but how fun does this place look?
Darren Navarrette, or The Vertical Vampire (which is way more fun to call him), will never miss the opportunity to get rad on some vertical terrain. Large or small, it doesn't matter—he will turn nothing into something and get you fired up to do the same. Here's a great example.

I love his caption, "The Search for Animal Double Chin continues." Pretty good. There were some real gems in the comments, too.
"This park looks like Blender designed it."
"Navlands."
"I had a nightmare about a park like this once "
"I absolutely love these. I'm 50 soon and watching these make me smile."
The fun can be felt the second you press play, but things actually start to heat up there towards the end. He's entering a level of fun that is closer to gnarly than playful. Some of these moves are way harder than he's making them look!
What I like most about the clip is how youthful it is. Fun is clearly the theme here, and a place like this was designed to create some fun and challenge your creativity. Nav passed that test with flying colors.
And the Fluf track? Just an added bonus.
