Come Out and Ride!

Mission

The mission of Tosa Skateboarders United (TSU – a registered 501c3 Non-profit organization) was simple: to build a skate park in Wauwatosa’s Hart Park.  Our skating and biking youth needed a safe and appropriate place to practice their sport.  There are plenty of baseball fields and basketball courts – why no skate park?  TSU set out to change that by building a fun, safe, and beautiful place for both kids and adults to enjoy for years to come.

TSU is an organization of Wauwatosa residents whose mission is to give the youth in our community a voice, while also reaching out to local businesses and institutions about the importance of youth engagement.  The original TSU founders, which included a group of neighborhood boys with some adult guidance, had clear ideas about their ideal skate park.  They stressed the importance of incorporating green space and making the park an aesthetically-pleasing addition to Hart Park.  They also envisioned a park designed to cater to all skill levels and ages – a spot that would promote lifelong participation in these healthy sports. And from the start, they wanted a park that would be allow skateboarders, bikers and inline bladers.  That’s where the “United” part came in.

The Tosa Skatepark opened officially on November 7th, 2015 with a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony.

PARK LOCATION

The Tosa Skatepark is located just south of State Street between 70th and 72nd Street in Wauwatosa’s Hart Park.  Plenty of parking is available next to the park.  Restrooms are located to the east across 70th street in the new Pavillion building by the playground or to the west on the west side of the Parks Administration building. The skate park is open dawn to dusk.

The design of the Wauwatosa Skate Park focused on two main objectives; creating a safe and fun course for our community skaters and bikers, and crafting a park that will enhance and showcase the natural beauty of Hart Park. The skate park was designed to mimic popular skating elements found within Wauwatosa, and cater to all skill levels and ages, so that skaters from all backgrounds can enjoy the park fully.  Both transition and street elements were incorporated.

The design of the park gives the youth of Wauwatosa a safe place to practice their sport, citizens will get a beautiful park to visit, and the city of Wauwatosa now has a cutting-edge space that will stand out not only among other parks in the Wisconsin, but in the entire United States.
