A good skatepark is judged on its surface, its obstacles and how well it suits different wheels. Smooth concrete suits skateboards, while scooters and BMX bikes need different curves and transitions. Many skateparks attract a mix of ages, so younger riders and families often share the space. When visiting, look at the surface before you ride, and check how busy the park is at the time you plan to go.
For a session on scooters or a family outing beside the pools in Burnside, it is a skatepark worth a visit on Ilam Road.
