Pham Tan, Founder of Por Vida Skateboarding, shared, “We are excited to offer the skateboarding community a versatile and conducive space where they can hone their skills and gather with like-minded skateboarding enthusiasts — no matter the weather. While there are many great skateparks in Singapore, skateboarders are often subject to hot or rainy weather conditions. With Por Vida Skateboarding Indoor Park and School being an indoor and centrally-located space, we hope to welcome skateboarders of all ages and skill levels with a thoughtfully-designed skatepark that features a wide variety of fun skate obstacles.”

Thee skatepark has also announced free entry to its premises on the first day of operations on Saturday, 1 October 2022, from 10 am to 10 pm. Interested visitors can sign up for a slot at @porvidaskateboarding.
