Question Palm Beach - Martin - St Lucie Florida?

I recently got back into longboarding and got a new EarthWing Supercharger to use here in Jupiter FL, north Palm Beach County. I have searched and found threads about Vista View park down South in Davie and hills up in Central Florida. I am looking for smooth hills or paths; not garages.

Are there any hilly places North of PB county? Ft. Pierce, Okeechobee maybe?

Dyer landfill.

Contact: Merrick...at the PB Gardens skatepark.
Also.....inquire on...Floridaskater.com...............
keeping in mind...that the vast majority of people who monitor that....are ramp / sk8park tranny heads.
Hasta.

I thought you might have been joking "only hill around here is mt trashmore" but I searched and found Dyer Park where there is a bike trail on a covered 55ft landfill.

Any other parks around here with good paths?

I wasn't joking.
The real Mt Trashmore was a covered over landfill made into a skatepark in Virginia...circa 1978.
Dyer is a just a nice, mellow bike path with a decent surface.
Don't expect to go over 36-37 mph there, realistically.
Not wide enough for real slalom, either....but you can have some fun.

If you want more than that.....contact Merrick, or Bob at the sk8park like I suggested....
or travel some.
The best hills in FL......ARE......in the central and northern areas.......obviously.
We have good sessions...in Minneola, Clearwater, and Beverly Hills.

I'm going to Dyer this weekend if the weather permits. The weather has been brutal lately.

I live in Jensen Beach in Martin county, and ya, the landfill is pretty fun, but litterally down the road from me is what local kids call killer hill. It's not killer at all but it IS a hill. NE Skyline Drive if you wanna google map it, its pretty much the largest natural hill in the area, so if your around check it out.

Skyline is definitely the best place to check out, Jensen Beach FL, killer hill is kinda crazy but skline in general is a sick place to skate, lots of hills and really well maintained roads, the only sketchy thing is there can be a lot of traffic, especially on killer hill.
