Thar she blows. when this is done Dundee will have 2, count’em: 2 concrete parks…The final pours have been done, and all thats left to do is grass-seed the dirt and officially open it.
Well… sort of. A few wee snags to the surfacing, re-facing the edge of the long grindy-block, and polishing out a few kinks in the surface. But really.. that’s preeeeety much it.
Lets just mosey on over and have a wee look shall we:
This guy was the concrete-finishing pro. NIce guy, and stoked on skateparks now. Good to have in the photo for scale.
BTW. Jokes about ‘sweepers’ are nesc. but I can’t be bothered….
The dark patch on the right was only finished off a couple hours before I took this photo.
Can’t wait to finally learn tailslides… and then shralp them on this.
Spoke to a couple of very local, neddy-BMXer’s who said they had been chasing out idiots who were smashing bottles in there at night. How cool is that? The place is not even open and these guys are protecting the place. I think we will all get on just fine…
THE OFFICIAL OPENING IS SCHEDULED FOR 10am on FRIDAY 14th.
I will be there, but not able to skate, so I hope someone will show up and shred, and show the press how to use it.
Here’s where it is in relation to ‘the Factory.’
Rock on.
