This park is of moderate size and has a street section and a half pipe with a spine. The standout feature of this park would be the 6ft half pipe, it's smooth and the coping isn't damaged by bikes and is the right height (very easy to roll in on). The street section is a standard prefab park setup so the quarters have crappy transition. The mini rail and the mini ledge are fun for chilled afternoon seshes or a quick warm up before heading to something serious. I'd say this park is for beginners or people that want to skate the half pipe but for skaters with a bit of experiece this park will get boring very quickly. A good thing is that the park has a huge dirt BMX track around it so you don't get any bikers using the park. The peak times are usually after school times on weekdays and before dusk on weekends where usually 10-20 people are cruising round the park. If you go during weekdays during school hours there would be max 5 people skating the park. The closest skateshop is not yodgees on puckle st as i'm pretty sure they've closed down. The closest one now is PSC skateboarding highpoint which is quicker if your driving but if your catching public transport it would be quicker to catch the train into the city and go to PSC skateboarding on Swanston st. The closest place to get food/drink would be to travel up kensington road until you get to various shops (fish and chips, IGA) which is about a 5 min skate up hill. There are toilets located at the skatepark.
man the other day i went up the spine on my skateboard and did a 50-50 stall then dropped in and did a MASSIVE VARIAL KICKFLIP on the halfpipe and landed i was so tripped out
yeah.... ,as far as the mini half pipes goes... the transition IS kinkless....it's just like stroking the arse of a new born.........but just like a new born...IT'S NOT BIG ENOUGH.......however it's nice to feel silk under your feet..(p.s ...i'm not a peadophile from India)
this park is fun you can go here on the way to the city from werribee. good fun too many kids tho.
sick park to ride 3-0 that spine sick cuntt
Probably the worst park i have ever ridden. I was in a bit of a quandrel, seeing as it is a new park, you would expect it to be good, so yeah, the concrete is nice, but so is the footpath out the front of my house. very disappointing, i cannot see how anyone could make a line at this place, and what the fuck is with the metal stuff at the bottom of the ramps???? is it that hard to concrete??? Please look up Weston Creek for te correct construction of a skatepark.
^ agreed
went there, fun fun fun but theres something aboutit thats just not... well i dont know, it dosent seem to have soul if you know what i mean.
somehow, i almost killed myself on that tiny little flat bar. Might have something to do with me being a vert skater...
