3 words "Oh My God",i have only skated this park once and i did not want to return to NSW
go early it gets too crouded- TB4eva!
like antsk8er said get in early do your warm ups before lunch when all the regulars get down there, then bust off into the city.
regulars are wack... love it when its empty!
this park it awesome i skate there most days after school and it is almost empty. It's also realy fun watching the regulars like richard flude. The park is so big and also has so many famous street spots near by
good park pitty i suck
great park. easy to get too just get off at flinders street turn right and you can see it. there is a kiosk which has all the stuff that you could need. including boards trucks bearings ect. does get very crouded but you can just go and skate one of the many famous street spots around it
in terms of facilities and atmosphere hands down best skatepark close to melb
aahhhh... the infamous Riverslide park. What is there to say that hasn't already been said? Amazing range of obstacles that favours all skill levels, sexy concrete and ramps, desirable layout and impeccable location. The Kiosk houses skate essentials i.e. Drinks, food, parts, mags etc, the city is just minutes away with legendary skate spots at your disposal and crowds of (mostly) friendly and exceptionally talented skaters. This is just an erotic, heavenly park which is really in a league of it's own. The bottomline: Skate it ATLEAST once in your lifetime. No matter what it takes. This park doesn't disappoint. It isn'ty just designed for the elite skateboarders, it caters for all creatures great and small. GO!!!

really awsome park melbourne has, perfect ledges of all heights and sizes, smooth concrete, 2 of the best hips i have ever skated, 2 decent sized hand rails, havnt done the big one but soon will, the ledge down the big funbox is sick, great for noseslides, the tin ramps at the end could be harsh but just be care ful of the transition, can be very busy when alot of people there but its a good days of skate, i recomend go there if u have an empty day free and u wana have some fun, theres also a shop there, sells skate hard wear and drinks and shit.. not a bad place.
needs a mini ramp

For some reason they've repainted the funbox near the entrance and they've repainted the green and yellow roll ins. Not sure if theyre done so the next time you go there might be a part your not allowed to use for the day.

i was here on new years im lovin lighting at the park kerang park needs lighting lol
On the convic site it says they're getting rid of the old metal quarter pipes and replacing them with concrete quarters and 2 hips...anyone know when thats happening?
they're workin on it right now.
yep
this park sucks and is only good for hammerz
Park is getting junkie at night, be sure to go in groups of 5 or more at night, specially weekends, im talking to bikers and skaters, wogs come down looking to fight at least every friday, i got rolled twice both times for 45 cents and nearly another time. The wogs only ever pick on small numbers or people, and usually they come down in large packs from the city, ull see them coming accross the grass, so if youre there on friday keep checking accross the grass, and if you see wogs, leave towards richmond station, becuase they will chase you and most likely beat you up. If there are many skaters and bikes there, the wogs will not fight , however what they do is, is sit around and wait for while for people to leave, then when theres few left, the weak dogs, pick a fight.
update the bloody site this park now has 2 new quarters and a wave where the old quarters were
yer awsom new ramps down the river end made the park so much better
lovestospooge is right. My friends nearly got stabbed. If you're smart, bring more than 7 people at night.
hey i can't talk on the forums 4 some reason but on this could some 1 tell me wat 2 do
I BEG SOME 1 TO ACTIVATE ME
listen to lovestospooge, Me and my friends almost got bashed, but luckily my dad insisted to come and break it up, the wogs got his Ipod though, let me give you some advice. If you are stupid enough go on your own at night, and the wogs come and steal your shit, don't try and get it back, you will most likely die.
starting next week on friday the 7th the park will now be fully lit at riverside till 10:30pm on wednesdays and fridays with all new lights and shit. its really bright and clear like footy oval lights. the cafe will stay open and cops and security will be doing rounds to try stop all the trouble with the fully sicks coming down from swanston street.
yeah i frends of mine have been beat here at nights gets dojgy after shop closes. if your going there at night dont bring anything you dont wanna lose
i LOVE this park but the skaters make it hell for any biker. and the YMCA can't actually make you wear a helmet!! fuck the ymca
bikers suck

Is the big 3 jumpable?
this park isn't really as good as everyone says it is
this is probably a sk8boarding place not really a bmxers dream. probably give that a 3 and a half
in real life it looks so much better than in the photos! should get some news photos so it actually looks 5 star
famazing park <3 has some cafee or something so food wise is all good, and toilets. some people there were freaks and everyone was real cool. so great!
