Default new skatepark for sunny skeggy

new skatepark for Skegness, X-Site skatepark,
Over the last 6 years, a group of enthusiastic skaters have raised just over 1.5 million for a purpose built park, we are also in the process of getting an outdoor plaza which is due to be complete by spring 2007.
We are a registered charity and a non profit making organisation.
Check out the image.
Take it easy all

2 hours. When jonowyborn or another friend passes their driving test, looks like it will definetly be worth a trip up.

looking forward to the plaza outside though, any bowls being put in?

Yeah the mini is sick, we had a bit of a problem with the size of the building ie loosing a whole bay but we are looking at making some changes to the street course now winter is creeping up, we will be getting a bowl but that will be phase three after the plaza and there is talk of a massive great vert been included in phase three an all

The street course is now being redesigned as we speak. And there is now in the works a nice big christmas jam. So make sure you all get yourselves down here. P.S. The website. Do not even go on there cos a web bloke f---kedus over big style and left us with no passwords etc. So do not even bother with it. We will post when it is sorted, best place for info at min is www.barelyoriginal.com, nice article about park. plus few good pics.

The Skeg park took us 7 long years of constant meetings.and effort. We worked our arses off to get it there, and if we can do it anyone can. The only way to get something is to get up off your arse and do it yourself. Good luck.
