Prior to the arrival of the Spanish in Alta California, the area that now comprises Downey was inhabited by the Tongva ethnic group, which came to be called the Gabrielino by the Spanish. The nearest Tongva settlements appear to have been just north and northeast of present-day Downey, although there is difficulty is locating them very precisely.

OUR SKATE INSTRUCTORS

Chris H. from Burbank, California!

I can teach plenty of tricks on rails, stairs, manny pads, ledges, & banks. I can pretty much skate anything except mini ramps.

Tyler W. from Los Angeles, California!

I love to skateboard, and I love to push and learn new things about my craft. I’m always bothering my own friends with skate tips and have spent 2 years working in a skatepark giving lessons. I have an excellent plan for beginner skaters looking to progress and have fun doing it.

Discover Skateboarding in a Two Week-Long School

Skateboarding is a pastime activity, a work of art, or a method of transportation. Skateboarding has been molded and influenced by many skateboarders throughout the ages. A 2002 report by American Sports Data found that there are 18.5 million skaters in the world. 85 percent of skaters polled who had used a skateboard in the previous year were under the age of 18, and 74 % were male. Those numbers have since doubled. In the following years the actual locations of skate parks have more than tripled making it more accessible as privately owned parks and indoor parks are coming into the picture.

The biggest change has been the generation bubble that skateboarded in their youth and have grown up with the “X” Games explosion into the global mainstream of competitive sports and now sees it as a natural participation sport for their children as led by X-Games Athletes who are affiliated and instruct for our brand and web site.
