A Look Behind Designing Skateparks with Rune Glifberg

Last Summer, we sat down with Rune Glifberg in everyone's favorite city, Copenhagen, to talk about how he got into designing skateparks, his approach and skated one of his latest projects. We also discussed the history of Faelledparken, where he grew up skating and first got in touch with designing skateparks. Featuring Skateboarding of Rune as well as Tom Penny, Andrew Reynolds, Dannie Carlsen, Thomas Kring, Alex Risvad and Ebbe Lykke working his magic. Enjoy!

Let us know below: which obstacle is a must-have for every skatepark? Thanks for watching ❤️

[@bennetrahm]

Quaterpipe

[@davidnovotny1322]

Thanks for great content guys! Proper ledge is definitely must-have!

[@charliekoloms9224]

A ledge and a flat bar. Too many parks these days have massive hubbas, bowls, and handrails without access to the basics.

[@Tekloiddnb]

Bowl. not enough bowls!!

[@memorysometimers3067]

If you have enough space....All terrains!! If space is limited then just a bar, a box, a quarter and a bank..simple.

[@zachary444]

The indoor wooden bowl is absolutely incredible, it would be a dream to skate!

[@PocketSkateMag]

Piece of art!

[@brianferguson8453]

Rune is the man! I remember talking to him about skatepark design when we were in China and it's sick to see where he's at with it now. G+L doing awesome work. Great story Pocket, keep it up!

[@PocketSkateMag]

[@ZackDowdy]

[@kaffeeskateboards]

Awesome content! Thank you.

[@memorysometimers3067]

The intelligence and engineering capabilities of the people over there in places like Denmark and Switzerland is unbelievable. Transitioned all that into the construction of the best “parks” on earth. Park is Not even a good name for them. They should be called a Skateboard Paradise!!

[@kelello2314]

[@Elieser_Delgado]

i got a question what type off program u use to make the skatepark en 3d and do you use some plugins or something like that? really good video by the way ✌🏼 greeting from panama keep it up!! 💯

[@PocketSkateMag]

I'll ask Rune what the name of the program is🤜🤛 thanks for your comment and cheers to Panama. Stoked to have you watching from over there

[@juanpablolabbe5823]

que pasa primo, hay distintos programas para modelar en 3D. yo personalmente utilizo revit o sketchup, específicamente ese software que veo ahi nose cual es, se ve como una especie de sketchup pero mas complejo.... para skatepark suelo usar sketchup es es mas rapido y facil de usar para un anteproyecto.... saludos desde stalin plaza prahaaaaaa

[@zachary444]

They are using Rhinoceros, beautifully I must say :)

[@Elieser_Delgado]

@@juanpablolabbe5823 ohh muchas gracias por los datos usas algunos plugins especiales en Sketchup

[@zachaddington5264]

Those designs are brilliant maybe put some build in gaps then I’d go I want to 360 and hard flip it

[@Tekloiddnb]

bare en enkelt vert med tag over i kbh er nok ;)

[@ghakal007]

HOW can i get u to build something in my country ?

[@PocketSkateMag]

Hit em up & ask if there are plans of building a skatepark and government approved. If you aren't there yet it's still a long road

[@ghakal007]

@@PocketSkateMag Thank you so much for the reply! I'll check him out 😎👌🏻

[@nuketube5211]

How many times did he say, "like?" I'm like gonna guess like 2 to 3 hundred. Someone put a "like" counter on it.

[@miguelaronesb1003]

Quisiera trabajar haciendo skateparks?

[@ocean6994]

Hardest part of designing a park is BUDGET
