I thought I'd put the record straight on the C&G skatepark - it was designed by skaters for skaters - with TR & Toby from High Rider and a group of others. In fact the big steps in the corner was a piece designed specifically by them and not something that the manufacturers had ever done before. Unfortunately we were limited by space and couldn't afford to resurface before the ramps were installed so it was never perfect. However it has performed well (and lasted a lot longer than the much more expensive Glastonbury park) and I've seen some amazing skateboarding there in the past. These things do need constant maintenance though and it does seem to work better for the bikers than the skaters. Mendip should be able to repair it if there are specific problems.
