Ryan Sheckler, 20-year-old pro skateboarder and star of the MTV series "Life of Ryan," now has his own city-approved private training facility in San Clemente.
It's in a 4,900-square-foot warehouse in the Rancho San Clemente Business Park that Sheckler converted to a private indoor skate park with ramps, stairs, railings and other features.

City planning commissioners approved a permit Wednesday night, setting hours, rules and occupancy limits. For example, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays, the facility is to be limited to one individual and no spectators. From 5 p.m. to midnight, there can be up to five people.
"At no time will the training area be open to the general public," said John Ciampa, assistant city planner. "The training area was used by the previous business for warehouse purposes and has been converted to an indoor skateboard park for Mr. Sheckler to practice without distraction."
