No pegs, are the thick or something :)

Was thinking of going there but not until they allow pegs, stupid wankers

i maybe wrong, but i don't think they've fitted all the coping (well, angle iron anyways) so grinding some of the ledges will wreck the concrete. if any o the locals could keep us posted on this, would be good. i'll re-post when i know more. as far as i gather, its awesome. especially for people who live close! not so many kickers n stuff, but good for a days worth o riding. my mates (BMX/skaters) have been goin there all weekend every week since it opened! and evenings, as its fully flood lit.

Yeah man, but why not extend that few hours to a few plus one hours when you can have pegs on?

Obviously that place is insane regardless, and I can just see so many things to do there just by looking at one picture, but not permitting pegs is taking a step closer to American BMX-banning. Surely skaters grind there anyway?

Ah whatever. Again, not like I'm going up there anytime soon.

train station is about 20mins there 15misn back. i live next to station pretty much from station.

all that shit about pegs, you CAN use them. there is just one short arse 40year old looking skater guy who doesnt like em.

all the ledges have a replaceable metal edging. my mate had this guy have a go at him in the bowl where there is a 1.5inch metal rail all the way round designed for abuse, the other skaters told him to shut up and stop actin like he owned the place.

it is very possible to make endless lines in that place, but from a trials point of view it is crap. if you like to mix things up and do a bit of park / proper street the place is heaven.
