Welcome to: Benny's Brisbane Skateboard Directory The site for skaters in Brisbane, Australia Compiled by Mark Brimson     Woodridge Skate Park   Logan Shire   Built in June 1998   News break (1998): If you haven't heard, the new "super park" in Woodridge comes with a SATISFACTION GUARANTEED gift wrapped seal of approval from almost everyone who has been there. Can it really be true that it is PERFECTION? Go and check it out for yourself! It is located where the old bowl is on Kingston Road, opposite Reserve Road. There are shops nearby to get snacks from, and the nearest public transport is the train (Woodridge Station). It is a fair hike from the station but not impossible by any means. (Go through the park)   The surface is bitumen with all the obstacles made with very fine grain concrete, giving it a very nice rolling surface. Metal coping covers every reasonably grindable edge without going overboard. Everything is easy enough to see in the pics so I will not describe all the wonders of Woodridge to you.   The photos here were taken of the park before it was completed, but it is fully surfaced and has been very crowded with skaters, bladers, bmx riders and local bombers since the first week of June. It is a good idea to go with a few friends for safety reasons, as a few boards and bikes have been taken by force from people there. Take a broom too!   The grind box and other obstacles   Reverse view of all up to the big quarter   The whole place, from on top of the bowl   Looking back towards the bowl   Now: Since the opening, the various comps, demos and other events, this place is still very good to go to. The only reason people don't go there much is the opening of all the other parks in the area, eg. Kuraby and Crestmead, which are also A1 places to skate.   Click on the images to see the picture (they take a while to load, so be patient)   The bowl after having a facelift   Brett Box 50/50 the bank to block   Buzz sliding the main rail over the box   Brett Box custom made f/s flip on bank   Geir is a guy from Europe... lien catch, #1   He is a very good skater, same trick, #2   Any more pics are welcome from others out there, as I am always willing to update these pages.     email me at:   mbrimson@yahoo.com ***** (click here to send me mail) *****   Click the "BACK" button to return to the previous menu.
