Derby - Storm indoor skatepark.

Pretty good from memory. Not sure if they let in mtb's though. I was on my cruiser.

Bit dodgy riding through the industrial estate to get to it.

Home to Fraggle (Odyssey rider).

And Newquay - Outdoor park

Again, not sure if they let in mtbs.

Home to Simon Tabron

london- playstation

It's now called "baysixtysix" and is run or sponsered by Xbox. Hehe how ironic!

Watford skatepark. An outdoor concrete park, not great but it's my local and can be pretty fun. Isn't the HSC skatepark in Harrow not Wieldstone? I go there sometimes but it's a bit of a dodgy area.

Peterborough: Y2SK8 My local. Unfortunately being torn down soon because the local council got planning permission for the site (N) (The BASTARDS) Get there while you can!!

Fear not, however; the people that run Y2SK8 are relocating and rebuilding somewhere close, which means fresh new lines for all to play on :D

I think the most "bike friendly" park I've been to has been Weymouth skatepark. It's a really good park and there aren't any attitudes toward big wheels. At one point they even had a small trials course.

Hope this is of help.

epic skatepark birmingham

just got a new little curved wall ride not big but fun.

plus we get the advantage of having cool boy bands being associated with the park

you said no wasn't filmed at epic was it? I studied that video and it looked nothing like it.

Just wanted to say Shrewsbury park's well worth a visit if you're a BMXer.

It's quite a nice lay-out in some ways, and it's all skatelite so it's hella grippy (Even in the wet, as we found (Y)"). There's an awesome BMX scene there too, some really good locals. They're all properly friendly too; told us how to get in without paying and so on, and mathuds0 on here almost bought a frame and Profile cranks off one of them :P

But yeah, it's a really cool little park.

Newquay-Wooden waves

Cornwall-Mount Hawk(designed by Tony Hawk)

Newquay's sick!, probebly the best outdoor skatepark ive been to. Its got a vert, a vert wall, a big spine, a jumpbox, 2 lush grippy halfpipes that are next to each other in a hip, amazing ramps everywhere, a sweet fun box with high grind boxes, rails, a roll in etc. If it was sunny I'd much rather be there than hawke, just means an extra 20 mins drive.

Mt hawke sk8 project is in Mt hawke. Its pretty sick and its the only indoor skatepark around here. Loads of sweet stuff in it too, you can easily stay there for a whole day. It has a cafe too, its just down such a horrendously bumpy, scrape your car everywhere track.

Porthreath is a dirt jump track, its called "the track". It's got a huge wooden roll in at the start, and some pretty high jumps. It also has a medium and a small section. Also has a one or two quarter pipes and the foam pit.

Falmouth, stithians parks are pretty cool too. There both quite small, but fun. Penzance halfpipe park on the harbour front is pretty nice now. Also the concrete one in treneere at the top of PZ. Hayle and St Ives parks arent really worth traveling for. There pretty fun for a few hours though.

Truro park should be finnished soon. It may even be done now... It looks amazing, real street plaza, I cant wait to ride it.
