Nambour Skate Park
 
Nambour (1/2 hour in from Sunshine Coast and 2 1/2 hours drive from Brisbane)
 
It is on the corner of Petrie Park Rd and Elder St (in Petrie Park easily seen from the intersection of these roads) The main road to get there winds through Nambour as does the train line. There is a skate shop on the main road and to get to the park, you have to go under the train line and wind round the park a little way before you will see the sacred site.
 
This is another example of an old skate site getting a big facelift and in this case, a whole new park. Like Woodridge, they left the old bowl where it was and built around it. There is also a mini ramp there now which suposedly rivals the old metal Paddo ramp in quality and skateability. A good sized quarter pipe runs round most of the park, with a big bank/hip combination at one end and a bank fun box in the middle. In one place, the quarter fades away to two block steps which are good for grind or gap tricks. There is also a little grind rail and some humps...
