Description

The Skatepark should be designed as a destination facility for families and spectators to appreciate, as well as users. The local users predominantly comprise of Under 12 scooter riders with a beginner to intermediate ability however there are some users in the 12-18 category of a more advanced ability. The overall design should concrete in construction and be of a beginner to intermediate level avoiding steep ramps and high grind rails and boxes.
Ideally the Skatepark should consist of the following elements however the list should provide inspiration but without the necessity to include all elements if this restricts design:
• Small to medium size ramps
• Flat banks and/or shallow quarter pipes
• Low to medium level grind rails and boxes
• A bowl or half bowl section
• A small stair set
The Skate Park should have a smooth flow to it as the users ride around the park and allow for users to ride multiple lines across the park. The creation of "hidey-holes" under ramps should be avoided and instead grass-mounding landscape build around them if necessary. The design should include seating. The design should include adequate drainage to keep the park fully clear of surface water and puddles.
