What visitors say
★★★★★
“Pros: They used decent quality materials when making the park (it’s what they did with them that’s the problem)
Cons: The concrete levelling job is absolutely amateur and the layout is a bit cramped.
Overall: Ok-ish for beginners but if you’re trying anything remotely tech…”
★★★★★
“The old one was much better but I guess they had to tear it down for the school next to it. It great for beginners and is very smooth. Downside is that it’s a little bit of a hill but other than that its a pretty solid skate park”
