haha i was about to make a thread about this. yeah i saw that shit about thornleigh in the paper thats good ahye? i tell ya what the new mayor truly has got his shit together, the first time i met him was when we were skating the planet x mini in hornsby at about 11 at night and he had just come out of the movies with his wife and was full talking to us about the berowra park and if we had been going to the design meetings and he watched us skate the ramp for about 10 minutes. i think we promised we would let thornleigh be bowl orientated? because they let berowra be 100per cent street. I reckon that would be sick and u could just have a couple of small rails and ledges around the side of the park like goulburn. ill definitely be at the meeting
PS-its great to hear about berowra too!!!!! do they know when it may be started?
sorry, i didnt read the whole post. where in thornleigh is the park gonna be built?
brick pit um... thornleigh indoor area.. um.... 4 streets after normo boys..
there we go
Pig- that exactly what I said but on a SCALE based opinion... when I drove past the park it looks really small... Like a tech deck park, I could be wrong but
thats just a thought,
basically.. Looks sick but could end up being miniture.
i dont think an all bowl park would be that good, mabye 50/50 cause some people woul want some bowl, but any park is better than no park
even a tiny park can be super fun when designed properly sing-diddy
this one seems to be designed well
