English term or phrase: government sanctioned shred zones
In a lot of ways, Sydney, Australia is the most skate-able and skate-centric city in the world.
Sure there’re other amazing places, like New York (too many cracks and bumps), San Francisco (more walking up hills than skating), and Barcelona (they only have Spanish food), but in terms of sheer skate-friendliness and good-times-vibes, Sydney has it locked down.
At last count, there were 667 suburbs of Sydney, and each of those suburbs has a minimum of one skatepark.
Some have two, and at least fifty suburbs have three or four.
All up that’s about 2000 government sanctioned shred zones, which is completely insane and also a gross over-estimate; but there’s certainly no denying there are a lot of skateparks in Sydney, and for the most part – they are rad.

Explanation:
Suggestion
"Shred" dans le sens argotique "Go Hard Attitude with a Conquer All Mentality". Couramment utilisé dans le vocabulaire des "skaters", semble t-il, mais je ne trouve pas d'équivalent français... d'où ma suggestion.
