Peir 7

To cut a long story short .. Peter and myself have been trying to do stuff for the local skate scene over the past 2 years ... At points it has been so frustrating with people nodding there heads and then nothing happening ... However finally we have got somewhere .... Si tipped us off on a new park being built in South Norwood .. Knowing the chances were that it would be another poorly designed metal skatepark we took the incentive to set up a meeting .. Sure enough the plans laid on the table where your typical council made metal park with no flow .... After a very successful meeting we where told that we could have input into the final choice of design , which turned out to be done by Wheelscape ... As you see below .... It is specifically very street orientated due to the fact there is allot of kids skating street in the area and with fairfield being so tatty these days this gives them another place to do it ...Thanks to Marley and Sam for attending the meeting with us ...Obviously there was quite a low budget on the park and people are going to moan whatever we do ... However this is just proof that if you want to change things you need to get involved !!! Thank you to Duncan Turner from the council for listening to us aswell .. ... More info on the opening day to follow ....
