1200 Argyle Avenue, West Vancouver, British Columbia V7T 1C1, Canada
The Peter Sullivan Skatepark (commonly known as the Ambleside Skatepark), located at 1200 Argyle Avenue in West Vancouver, British Columbia, is a premier 10,000-square-foot facility that serves as a high-performance anchor for the North Shore. This project was designed and built by New Line Skateparks in 2016. The park was renamed in honor of the late Peter Sullivan, a local skateboarding pioneer and founder of Supra Distribution, whose personal fundraising and advocacy efforts were instrumental in replacing the site's original, outdated asphalt park with a world-class concrete landscape.
The park is famous for the phrase etched into its concrete—"Skateboarders rule the world"—which was a personal mantra of Peter Sullivan. The site is perfectly integrated into Ambleside Park, offering stunning views of the Burrard Inlet and the Lions Gate Bridge. The layout is "all-wheel friendly," providing technical challenges for advanced riders while maintaining an accessible scale for the local youth.
The park is situated within a vibrant recreational corridor, adjacent to basketball courts, a ball hockey area, and the popular Ambleside beach and seawall. The site features professional-grade lighting, integrated seating for spectators, and nearby washroom facilities. Today, the Peter Sullivan Skatepark is recognized as one of the busiest and most well-designed parks in the Greater Vancouver area, serving as a fitting tribute to a man who dedicated his life to growing the skateboarding community.
