Message I am looking into setting up a skatepark in lancashire, there is a big local scence and the lads are all traveling a fair way for indoor ramps. I have been riding for 20yrs or so and now its time to give something back,

I am looking for as much info as i can get:
* sqft needed
* How many people pass through
* good research locations
* people in the know
* people willing to share some info?


i have been in touch with ramp child and such for some good design ideas, and looking into insurance, been on to the council about planning, but any info you can share would be much appriciated,
I would also like some blading, scooters and skater input as my self am rolling on 20"

Any help appriciated

Cheers

Message I ran Y2SK8 park in Peterborough for 7 years, until the landlords sold the land to Persimmon.
I can offer free advice and also alternative designs to suit various user groups. The park has to evolve with the user groups, this is the only way to run successfully
