cantalowes opening jam
Krang:
Looks like a public park to me. I think the times are just for the jam.
Anon.:
Yeah, I knew they were just jam times but it was more that the way that London skateparks never seem to be that simple these days I thought I'd better check (see also: Bay66, London Bridge Skateplaza)...
Krang:
Is that skateplaza open now? To bikes?
paulie:
i'm pretty sure that cantelowes is open to bikes, esp as it specifies bmx in the opening jam details!
but it does now seem to have fencing/lockable gate surrounding it so it could be subject to opening times.
on a downer note a couple of mates went for a look a few weeks ago and had some numpty skater shout 'no pegs! no pegs!' at them. then he went onto say how 'you coan see the burnside influence' of the park... :rolleyes: somehow i can't see them not allowing pegs, who's gonna stop us?
while it looks ok, canelowes is a zillion miles away from burnside... only time will tell how well the bowl flows, i reckon it's too small. but i do think the park section looks like fun.
as i'm moving to north london in a few months this will be one of my local spots so hopefully it'll be ok.
oh and i think the skate plaza is still just a skate plaza, but i'm not really fussed about that.
it's a shame, but as no riders (that i know of) were involved in getting it built leave it to the people who got it sorted.
Krang:
Sounds sad. But I'd be content riding that grind ledge for a few hours. That corner pyramid thing looks like it'll be fun for 270s and the like though.
I'm just working on a good way to get from South London to there at the moment.
