This dude on Vintage - Jed Rogers from 9th Street Austin trails - posted up some images of a park job he just got in Texas. Looks sick!

The place where it is going: www.texasxpark.com

Overall Specs:
Things are changing.
That's not going to be the largest skatepark in Texas because I am designing the largest skatepark in Texas.
85,000 square feet that will be built in Leander which is northwest Austin.
20,000 sq ft of concrete street, 20,000 sq ft of concrete bowls, 30,000 sq ft of covered dirt jumps, 10,000 sq ft of conc/skatelite BMX Park course and a 5,000 sq ft vert ramp.
It's going to be the most rediculous place that's ever been built aside from that place in China.

I'll post pics soon.

A little more about the DJ part:
Lots of stuff is right.
You'll be able to hit the wallride or quarter when you come back from one end and take a whole new line all the way down and back. By then you should be pretty tired. I've got a lot of over-under jumps over pits so that should be cool. The hardest part of putting that much stuff in there was avoiding collisions. I've got all of my crossings so you either go over or under so you don't have to worry about running into people.
I'm pretty excited to get that built.
I'll be surveying it all in constantly to make sure evrythings where it's supposed to be. I've also got Chris Hallman to work out there on dirt when we start.
The 12' deck drop-in is going to be bad*** too.

This can't be real. This is even crazier than Hell Track. A drop off a 12' deck onto a 7' landing to start the big line??? That's X-Games style. Look at all the lines on here... there's got to be 50 different lines you can take. Holy sh!t. If this gets built... it will have to be the craziest DJs in the world, by far. Why TX???? They should be building this in SoCal!!!

The reason why it is being built there is, well everything is bigger in Texas and Noodles and those guys will make sure it is spot on. Shall be interesting to see that place once complete.
