Dreamland Skateparks Company is run by eight skaters and their families. These guys have been skating for over 20 years and are all sponsored to some extent (they prefer to keep it low key). The name "Dreamland" came from people commenting that the Northwest is a dreamland for skaters. They are a quality driven company. They will lose money on a project in order to make it perfect Dreamland work. All their projects are researched before any designing begins in order to build the skateparks that continually attract people, and keeps them engaged and challenged, which in turn, keeps youth out of trouble. |

| Dreamland Skateparks gets over 30,000 hits a month on their Web site, and hundreds of phone calls a day for the parks that they build. This company is successful because of the mix of personalities and skills, and most importantly, their devotion to skateboarding. They have built over 12 skateparks in the United States, one in Austria, and have projects pending in Hawaii, California and North Carolina. Dreamland has designed and built skateparks for their friends and celebrities, and there are rumours of building a multiple story, 45-foot "death thing" with 3 full-pipes and bowls on each corner in their own back yard. |  |

This is the reason that Dreamland is so superior to all other skatepark designers. They are able to to make things so unreal, that they can't keep up. There helmet (as seen on left) is something that dreamland is famous for. People don't have the guts to do this untill they're at a higher level of skating; this is what they aspire to. You can only imagine how hard this is to make out of concrete, the weight that is being spread out throughout the structure. This takes some real design and engineering work. all we want is a big thing of contrete to fall on your head while doing a pretty sick trick. |
