Derby Skatepark Update - one month on

A lot has happened in the last couple of weeks, the bowl has started to be dug, the quarter has taken form and the driveway has landed, you can really start to get the scale of it...

Quarter to the right...

Driveway being formed

Give it a couple of months and this will look even better...

Pouring and testing concrete

Final plans are here, and it's going to be amazing. Some great stuff in here which is unique to Derby and definitely worth coming to session. Progress from today is a concrete smoothness test and some progress reporting. Have a look.

There will be some good all round filming angles from these banks when it's done that's for sure. We'll keep you posted!
