Thrashers was built in 1996, making it the oldest skate park in South Africa.

It has been home to many of South Africa’s skateboarding legends past and present and has become an institution in the Pretoria skate/alternative scene.

Thrashers provides a fully accommodating venue for skateboarding, BMX, rollerblading and aggressive skating. The skate park boasts many transition and street obtacles including ledges, stairs, a fun box, pyramid, two quarterpipes, death ramp, as well as a mini-ramp and the new manual pad ledge feature.
