The Vans OC Park is fun to skate! Although, the park is seething with children that do not even skate the park, but just roll around blocking the ones who actually skate. I cannot begin to describe the unendurable frustration of constantly being cut off by a child that is not actually skateboarding but just rolling around. Plus, the employees I have experienced are extremely rude. I was kindly asking for some knee pads for me and my friend and this lady was giving off such an attitude. I told her I HAD elbow pads in my backpack. She told me I would get kicked out of the park if she saw me without it. She did not need to say that. There was no reason for her to act like that. She basically ruined my mood to skate. After, this person that was a male and had a beanie on, was extremely rude and passively aggressive. I picked up some elbow pads that I thought no one was using and he starting questioning me. He said, "Why did you take those?" "Are they yours?" And more. He said all those things in a very rude tone but smiled through it as if he was being respectful. He then threatened to take my board. That totally messed up my skate mood and I won't be skating there again any time soon. If you're an actual skater that wants to skate this park, really consider this if it is worth being snaked every five minutes, wearing uncomfortable pads, dealing with rude employees, waiting in long lines and the park is packed.
