Video: Council Install New Ramps At Burgess Hill Skate Park
20th June 2016 By Peter Chapman The local skaters are being kept happy after Mid Sussex District Council invested another £13k on equipment for St John's Skate Park
The council engaged with the park's users over what needed replacing and what they'd like to see introduced.
Skateboarder Toby Webb says the improvements have been 'greatly appreciated' with long-time users saying the park is 'the best it's ever been'
In the following video, Toby talks us through the changes:
Here's a quick visual guide if you can't spare 2 minutes to watch the video.....
The flatbank has now been extended to the full-width of the mini-ramp.
The jump box has been replaced with a new version which is smoother with a curvier shape.
A new manual pad has been installed.
Worn out panels on some of the ramps have been replaced.
