Thornside Skatepark
NEAR ME SHARE
Thornside, not to be confused with Thornlands, is north of Capalaba and is a relatively new park (2000 / 2001 construction) but seems to be lacking in basic workmanship. There is a couple of decent grind blocks of the standard 1ft height, a small "pizza slice" bank type obstacle, a low rail and the smallest half pipe I think I have ever seen, being the same height as the grind blocks 1ft high and about 10 ft wide, coping that sticks out a mile and very short mellow lumpy transitions which make it harder to skate than many other ramps around.
The park has a number of trees which shed leaves and other things on the surface, and also provides some shade. A tap is nearby but nothing else from what I recall other than the sports clubs, so bring your supplies and a broom.
You can see by the pics how small it actually is.

Gives a new definition to the phrase 'mini ramp'.
Man, I smashed myself and landed on my arse on that half pipe... sooo hard to drop in on
Are you serious Thomas O'Brien??? Surely you can drop in now right? It's sooooo easy
A metal mini ramp had been added and the ledges have been raised I think. Been a long time since I was out there.
