Today's over excited noob thread:
Fave skateparks that you've ridden, where's good & why?
I ain't been to that many, but have been out & about round Wigan & Warrington these past 2 months since my rebirth, trying to drop in off most things I can ride up, and constantly tryna get above the coping.
My Public / Free Top 3
1: Cadishead: Wooden, spacious, nice variety. Was there today for the first time. Love it! Just wish the highest 1/4 section was wider.
2: Victoria (Vici) Park: Big, concrete & scary
, closest thing I've ridden to the big US parks / Livingstone / Rom that you always see in mags & vids.
3: Alexandra (Ali) Park: Metal, nice variety, & seen some very sick riders there.
Not far behind Newton-Le-Willows, very spacious, metal, lacks variety, but a nice high 1/4. Usually some barking sheep dogs trying to round me up, always seems to be windy and generally lacks a bit of atmosphere.
My Indoor / Pay Top 1: (only 1 I've been to
)
1: Ramp City: Only been once (on a Rad lock in), but it's ace. Big, wooden, variety, and best transitions I've ridden.
Hoping to ride Southsea this summer, & Irlam keeps calling too, RampWorx & Bones are also on the list to visit...
