Pier 15 Skatepark, located in Breda, Netherlands, is a dynamic space that blends skateboarding, culture, and creativity. Opened in 2013, the park was co-founded by a group of local skateboarders with a do-it-yourself mentality, aiming to create a cool spot for skaters that didn't previously exist in Breda. The founders, including figures like Rinse Staal, built everything themselves, from the skatepark to the bar, making it a hub for both local and visiting skateboarders.
Over the past decade, Pier 15 has grown beyond just a skatepark into a lively cultural center. It now hosts a variety of events, including live concerts, DJ sets, art exhibitions, and even the World Skateboarding Cup in 2018, making it an international attraction. The venue has attracted over 70,000 visitors annually, making it a key part of Breda’s cultural scene.
The skatepark itself features various ramps, rails, and street elements, catering to skaters of all levels. Pier 15 is also known for its "each one, teach one" philosophy, where newcomers are welcomed and mentored by more experienced skaters. This nurturing environment has contributed to the skatepark's reputation as a space for talent development, not just in skateboarding but in arts and music as well.
The park operates with a grassroots approach, reflecting its founders' commitment to maintaining a creative, free-spirited atmosphere. This ethos has helped Pier 15 thrive as a cultural and sporting hub in Breda, offering a unique blend of sports, entertainment, and community engagement.

A big part of skateboarding is about finding Animal Chin - your spirit animal, or in other words: whatever gets you stoked. Could be the right people to roll with, or that special dream terrain. Trucks and Fins has all the best skate destinations in one place; a map of stoke in your hands.
