After a mission to actually get there (Needed to get new tube -
SEE THIS THREAD , roadworks and rush hour) I spent an awesome hour exploring my local (Cheltenham) skatepark.
There's some nice stuff there (for me anyway)
7ft Miniramp (which was slightly wet so I avoided it)
6ft Volcano
4ft Volcano
Loads of other ramps which are lined up and spaced out well
THIS VID SHOWS WHAT ITS LIKE and how it can flow Spent most of the time practicing on the 4ft Volcano (Save the 6ft monster for next time), practicing my kick turns and 180 jump turns (not sure what the official term is but I've wanted to get them sorted for some time now). Just felt good and went away feeling pumped up and ready to hit Corby on Tuesday!!
And what topped it off was two young 'uns came in to the park while I was there and had a good chat and showed them how to drop in!!! Me of all people - Mr "only been on a BMX 6 times" - showed someone else how to drop in!!!! ROCK ON!!!!
Awesome hour spent before work!!!
