nickj Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Crates or pallets are good to learn on as you can make small gaps or blocks. You can gradually make bigger gaps and bigger heights (until you're as good as Damon Watson in this clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AwDv4qHM96s). Industrial estates are usually good places to look and most are ok about it so long as you put the crates back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake. Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 I know a large indoor park that is about 10-20 minutes from Perranporth... Forgot its name though, went there 2 years ago (its a skatepark ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigjames Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 You've got one of the best natural spots in the country on your doorstep, Dartmoor. Myself Joe Seddon and Ben Johnson were out there today, don't think i could get bored of the place, lots to ride for pretty much all levels. Just get out and explore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Bone Hill Craig? How was it wetness wise? We were down at Cligga Head in Cornwall on Sat, was pretty good. The indoor skatepark is Mount Hawke probably? Never been myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never been myself.We went to some spot off the right of Haytor, take the road that basically doubles back on yourself before Haytor car park, was pretty good Road bone later on, but was silly windy. Was dry too, no issues at all. Pretty damn good ride really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
