 Re: The Design Forum....
Nice site guys and neat forum will have to get one for our site.
Looks like things are taking shape with the skate park and we at the Grand are looking forward to seeing it up and running so you guys can skate safely.

 Re: The Design Forum....
Excellent looking designs - I know how difficult & time consuming it is, as following the same route, but on a smaller scale in West Wales (Hundleton).
What graphics have you used to generate the 3D images? I'm working on graph paper at the moment!
Keep up the good work!

the skatepark
Hi I'm not sure about the skate scene I know it's really big but I know there is a huge bike scene in Clitheroe, Whalley and Blackburn and we were just wondering whether were allowed to bike in this park or is it skate only?

You'll want to speak to Ifliped about that - it's a professional CAD package but I'm not sure which one. Mail her at ifliped@hotmail.com.
I actually did some of the early models shown using the Unreal editor, which was good for playing with layouts, if not for doing nice renderings.

Re: The Design Forum....
Just wondered who designed this and who is building it - I really hope your £400k does not go down the tube.
Many UK skateparks are screwed up by general contractors who think they know what they are doing or by landscape architects who have no idea what a line in a skatepark is yet alone how it should work.
Does the specification have a tolerance for the laying of the cement - if not you might end up with a bumpy piece of rubbish suitable for bike tyres but not small skate wheels.
Did you speak to anyone at www.ukskate.org.uk for example?

Re: The Design Forum....
I guess you've been reading the local rag? It isn't costing 400k, closer to half that last I heard. The 400k figure is, I believe the total cost of this plus work on The Grand which is being done at the same time, by the same charity.
The concerns you voice are exactly the same ones which caused me to get involved in the first place. We'll have no bumpy surface or playground equipment companies here. It's 100% skater designed, and I trust that the builders and architects we're using care about doing it right.
