Nice one

And if I'm not mistaken that's on the side where there's an eight foot vert section on the other side of that box! No room for mistakes

<<<< feels sudden urge to just move to cornwall.

woody allen bars · « **Reply #15 on:** July 11, 2007, 05:05 PM »

Yeah, Cornwall is a concrete haven - three beautiful concrete parks within 20 miles of each other (plus one or two old geezers riding their 20" bikes in them and reminiscing about the early 80s at Holywell Bay skatepark - RIP

)

May do. One of the first BMX races down here was held at Holywell, sometime in '81 I think. We rode there 'til it got dug up in '92

dirtyvans · « **Reply #20 on:** August 02, 2007, 09:52 PM »

cool pic

i've ridden that park, superb little park - well designed, nice deep interlinking bowls

more fun than mount hawk!

woody allen bars · « **Reply #21 on:** August 03, 2007, 12:12 PM »

I try to ride Hayle every Saturday if I'm at home and it's dry. It's not bad, although the transitions aren't the best, Tuckingmill is way better. Here are a few pics:

Overview

One of the locals, Ash, riding the cradle:

My riding buddy Derrick airing out of the kydney bowl. 37 years old, and riding a rusty old mid 90s GT Performer:

A name from the past for you mid-schoolers. Tommy Bowers, ripping it up on a sk8:

Hopefully gonna give Mr Leech a tour of the local parks when he's down here in a couple of weeks; should make some nice photos

I was just talking to Tim Ruck last night about my cornwall trip. I told him you were going to take me to all 3 parks in one afternoon while Im down that way on Holls with my family.

Cant wait!
