The magical place your searching for is only a myth son. A bike friendly skate park is about as real as a good looking woman that can cook and clean.

Ladner is not bad as far as biking friendly parks are concerned but I would stay away from Tsawassen (sp?). No meaning to contradict Rosco but unless your a local the skaters don't seem to be all that stoked with bikers ripping around the t-town park.

Parkgate is pretty dope, the bowl is alot of fun. Confed is fun as well.

All you have to do is be sure to give respect wherever you go, we all (skater & bikers) just want to session and have a good time. Keep your head up and make sure you don't snake peoples lines and you shouldn't have a problem. Most skater that I know get pissed because they think bikers aren't educated as far as skatepark ettiquete is concerned. Check out FEEBLEBMX.COM for an idea of the local bmx scene.

Have fun shredding parks man, MATT

ya i always give respect to the other users of the park. i used to skate so i know how irritating it can be snaked and to have dirt and shit tracked on the park by bikes.

thanks for the suggestions guys.

yep i have to agree. come on thursday night free pop and chips, usually packed with bikers every once and a while. The skaters will complain but only by saying "this is a skate park". Plus many are little dirt bags who are afraid of people on bikes especially bigbikes.
