This is a shot of an amazing looking collection of concrete at Chingaucousy Skatepark in Brampton, Ontario, as designed and constructed by Spectrum Sk8parks. Soak it all in, then watch some video after the jump.


I love the way this park looks, but something about those rails sticks out like a sore thumb. Maybe it’s the paint job or the design, but they seem to be the one element that doesn’t fit in with the rest of the design.

If you’re hungry for more, there’s video of a Planb B demo at Skatersinc.com, and of course more pictures at Spectrum.





Honestly, I'm not a big fan of skate plazas.... There's nothing wrong with them, they're awesome if a City sets aside existing paved areas and says hey you can skate here. What's ridiculous is spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to build a spot that looks like a normal downtown landscape.


In cities where it rains all the time, I can understand having Skate Plazas in covered areas. That makes sense.
