Company Overview
5th Pocket Skateparks is a skater-owned and operated benefit corporation (B Corp) based in Langhorne, Pennsylvania. Founded by Jesse Clayton and co-owned by Sloan Palder, the company specializes in skatepark design consultation, construction management, and expert craftsmanship. Given their dedication to cast-in-place concrete skateparks, they provide cost-effective alternatives to prefab parks without sacrificing quality or creativity.
With over 50 completed skatepark projects, 5th Pocket has built a strong reputation for precision and innovation. Their process includes every aspect of skatepark construction, from earthwork and drainage system installation to complex multi-radius concrete forms and shotcrete applications. Moreover, they work closely with local skaters to ensure each park is both functional and unique. As a result, their parks reflect the needs of the communities they serve while fostering a vibrant skate scene.
What’s more, 5th Pocket is deeply rooted in skateboarding culture. Because of this, they continuously push the boundaries of design while maintaining a commitment to durability and performance.
