its been done up since these photos were taken now its rad
I grew up skating manly park as a kid. Since then much has changed. The photos shown dont do the park justice. The place where the third photo was taken from has recieved a good touch up, with a line of flatbanks and quarters improving the parks lines. The funbox in the middle of the park is tricky and really not all that special, however, the blocks located on the side of it are almost perfect. The concrete is in pretty bad shape, and the coping, in my opinion, sticks out too far, but the qaurters are great fun to skate, especially the smaller ones. Next to the park you will see two mini (although one isnt really very 'mini') ramps. The bigger one used to have about 2 foot of vert on it, but that has since been chopped, for what reason i have no idea. Regardless of this, the bigger ramp, which stands at about 8 or 9 foot, is fucking excellent, and very challening for the more street inclined skaters. The smaller mini is an absolute pile of shit, and i wouldnt skate it to save my life, or anyone elses. your more likely to die skating that little pile of rubbish than you are driving blindfolded in peak hour traffic. apart from that, the park is pretty fun. no real opportunities for anything huge to go down, but a fun place to skate, and its heaps near the beach, should you feel the need to look for women, or beat up waxheads (wadey). also, there are heaps of good pubs in manly. Id say its worth a go, so go.
and by "where the third photo was taken", i do of course mean "where the fourth photo was taken." shut up.
o.k. park, but too small (gets ultra cramped at comps) & has a poor excuse of a run-up to tha rail. It now has banks but still doesnt deserve 4 stars.
Small park but can be alot of fun with the lads for a sesh. The addition of the bank at the carpark end have improved the place outta sight as it now opens up so many more lines. i like it. Mini ramp is a decent size and width. You can go hard on that thing...
Nice sk8 park!!
Pretty Snazy!!
i went to the volcom wild in the parks comp at manly sure has changed
im a local and it is well nice when u skate it heaps...........rail run up is shit and when its sticky its a death trap..........
It's good but SOME of the locals are idiots, not most though.

NEW PARK AT MANLY VALE / ALLAMBIE: Not sure if this is the best place to post this but Warringah Council is building a new park at Miller Reserve (Corner Condamine Street and Campbell Parade). Its due to open in July 2006. Saw them building a nice big bowl and two quarter walls, one with a small extension. Can't wait to ride it! :)

my frind broke his arm on tha rail.good park when its not wet/crowded
doesnt really look like a 4* park...
Is this the same place I went to in about 1988? Back then there was just a ramp (vert or close to, maybe, can't recall) with a keyway plus a flat bit to roll around on (tar or concrete, also can't remember) which locals had tossed various scrounged wooden objects onto to make it more fun and that was it. I remember a guy breaking his arm on the ramp...
those photos are old!!! lol ye its pre good parkaccept for that sketchy quater-pipe
this heres my local. good prak once you get the drift of it but fucking shit on the weekendds when theres little shits riding around on scooters

the funbox is good. step is fun and challenging. you could spend half a day there thinking up lines. lots to do from rookie to pro which reminds me that u may get a glimps of the local shredders that turn up once in a while. mini ramp sux! bigger one is good.

really nice park to skate and ride
i kinda like millers a lil better but nowdays there is to many scooterkids and most of em are faggets so yeah....millers isnt the best place anymore
decent park, gets my milky seal of approval
The metal half pipe has been replaced with a pre-fab one which right now while brand new is quite good. It is the type with lots of joins and screws that can come up as it gets older so enjoy it while you can. The concrete park is still getting a lot of love from local shredders, who were killing it on Thursday afternoon when I stopped in there to have a roll and take some more pics. Super busy and lots of kids going up and down the park makes for an interesting ride when others are using all of it and carving fast round the corners, but they all seem to have it worked out and there were not as many collisions as I would have thought at a small park with that many people trying to use it at once. Definitely better during school hours to skate for less worry of getting knee capped by a scooter. Surface of the concrete was not too bad either, with the painted areas really good and the expected older bare flat being more on the rough side.
