Earth Surf Skate Park, Chesterfield- CLOSED

 

Location: 1 Chesterfield Center, Chesterfield, MO 63017    

Website: https://www.facebook.com/earthsurfstl/about

This skate park is in the lower level of the old Sears at Chesterfield Mall. You can't get in from inside the mall, you have to go around to the outside. They have a small sign that says "skate park now open". They have some cool things for sale including t-shirts and skate accessories. It's nice to have an indoor park so you don't have to worry about the weather. 

I would call before you go because their hours are different every day.

This skating rink is older but very clean. Every session is cosmic so the neon is flowing and everything is glowing. 

They have a few arcade games scattered around the lobby area

Parties are pretty reasonable here and the staff was very friendly and helpful.
