The Wig Skatepark

910 Brainard St, Detroit, MI 48201

The sense of community that flutters around the Detroit skate scene backed by the beloved and missed Wig diy is something that is so often hard to come by in such a big city. If you have ever been to the Wig you have probably had a conversation with Derrick Dykas, who leads Community Push alongside a crew of really great dudes doing great things for their community.

Derrick conceptualized a super unique feature that pays homage to Detroit's rich Motown history and Skatepark builders, 5th Pocket Skateparks, brought the vision to life with the help of local paint artist @neonspinningfractals on Instagram.

This record player feature looks super fun to skate, and the backstory behind it really hones in on how tight the skate community is in Detroit, their appreciation for their city, and their dedication to keeping the skate scene lively.
