The Park - Indoor skatepark Geelong Australia
How's it going Steemers ?
Today is the day for the 2018 Australian Rollerblading titles !! Kicking off at 4pm at The Park in Geelong.
Here is a quick run through of the park layout. We will have additional obstacles for the street course added in to make this comp amazing!
The Vert Ramp
This vert ramp is a beast!! With a 5.5M high jersey bank barrier with pool coping that has a 4.8M extension and kick into it. On the other end there is a 4.8M Quarter Pipe offset and a bowled elbow. This vert ramp is for the experienced skater. It has lines for days with all the add ons.
The Mini Mega
Now this is my favorite part of the park ☺ It is the only mini mega ramp in Australia and its indoors.
Flying down the 5.5M bank into the two kickers over a table top to land on the down ramp, into the 4.6M huge quarter pipe is truly something to be witnessed and experienced.
This ramp is an expert ramp and you must wear a helmet to ride.
STATS:
*ROLL IN: 5.5 METRES
JUMP RIGHT HAND SIDE: 4.8 METRES
JUMP LEFT HAND SIDE: 5.5 METRES
QUARTER PIPE: 4.6 METRES
We spent most of yesterday training on this to get us ready for the Mega Ramp tomorrow. Getting my 360's on lock.
The Mini Ramp
This mini ramp is so much fun! Pool coping, tight transitions, wide to grind and a 2FT extension that goes vert! This thing is fast and fun. Although tucked away, it’s a hidden gem. You can play all day on this ramp, generating a lot of speed from the fast surface to the smooth slick coping! Awesome to get some switch up grinds on.
The beginner ramp
This little 3ft halfpipe is perfect for people to learn how to ride a half pipe.
The street plaza.
The street plaza is a lot of fun to link tricks together. There is a 8 stair rail which is a lot of fun. There are some concrete quarter pipes, ledges, euro gaps and a nice litle pyramid rail.
The address for The Park is -

402 Thompson Road
