2(D)(5). Street and vert, and what is in a skatepark

Optional May not apply Often forgotten

This may not apply to you. You have not answered "Requirement 2: ice skating, roller skating, in-line skating, or skateboarding?" yet. Answer it and this step will either settle or drop off.

The two main styles, street and vert, and then the common skatepark features: ramps, a manual pad, rails, a spine and the rest. This is the vocabulary the later steps and the trick families are written in.

Where this step comes from

  1. Skating Merit Badge Requirements (Merit Badge Hub, last modified 2025-12-31), Requirement 2(D)(5) · The requirement names street and vert as the two main styles, and names ramps, a manual pad, rails and a spine among the common skatepark features.
