Taroona Skate Park
NEAR ME SHARE
Is a really fast park, with heaps of really sweet lines. The two bowls (1.4m and 1.2m deep) link up with a smooth roll-over, and just as sweet into the main arena. Numerous rails and blocks to grind and slide to your hearts content. A place for big airs, and screaming spead. Built by local contractors, and although the finish is not perfect, and the coping is a bit dodge in places, the overall ride is smooth and fast. Thanks Simon for the pics.

...I designed this park... and i have my criticisms. the most dissapointing thing for me is the use of stainless coping, rather than galv... so it gets sticky after a rain... and the ledges etc get hard to slide (not that I skate these!).. it has also been suggested to me that the obsticals could now be bigger...which isn't a hard thing to fix. I would have made a couple of the trannies bigger if I did it again.... but, still the most fun park for me in Tassy. The lines are endless, you get to go really fast. The finish is smooth and seemless, and the atmosphere is absolutely chilled. I love skating with my mates, it's great to see guys who've been surfing and skating for 25years still get stoked. We are all members of the bowls club nextdoor... thats where you'll find us, sucking on a cheap beer infront of the high-jacked bigscreen, after a hefty sesh.... carv'n it up.
thats a pretty sic lookin park!
sweet layout of the park
Sick park I rate this park as the best in Tassie. Its fast fluent, there is heaps of lines heaps of things to do for all types of skaters and the best bit is there is hardly any one there cause its just slightly out of the way so when you want to go for a roll you can have the place all to yourself. But if there is someone there they are normally chilled and happy skaters.
you rate this park the best in tassie? coughE.Ccough
Yea This park is the bomb its my local park but it gets kinda boring aftyer a while
this park is sick!!!! it has good lines but the grind box on top of the bank at the top of the computergfx picture should be a wall 1.5-2 meters high, so we wouldent have to look round for bank to walls all the time. and gumnuts are deadly at high sppeds! great park alltogether though
yeah tis pretty cool cept for all the friggin gum nuts!
dylan if you got your head out of your crotch you would see that the E.C is the best it is rated 5 and this is 4 dickface
martin shut up the hand rail is perfect i love it. oh and wath out for the gumnuts even george newslome cant handle them
the best bowls in tassie! peirce once again you do not plan your speech, buy a thersorus
I rate it as the best Tassie park, despite EC having a 5 rating. People always rate their local top and alot more people go to EC regularly.
I think all the graffiti has ruined the park a bit. If u go there, skate the handrail... fun as!
And it hardly gets crouded..
