HOW A SKATEPARK IS BUILT!

[@kaynesantor8136]

I'm a tile guy and a casual skater. This type of stuff is super interesting to me. Those guys are super red and i love their whole ethos. They build it, they skate it, they love it. That's how you get an excellent final product. Awesome job boys.

[@HipTrent]

I am a landscape architecture student at Calpoly and I am going to school to build skateparks someday. This video has so much useful information! Definitely saving this video for later. I cant wait to get some more experience in the field (evergreen please hit me up if you need an intern). I hope to be running a design build firm in the future!

[@MARS041]

Let's goo, this is what I want to do in life. Very informative 👌 thank you braille

[@musclecarfan74]

I started skating in 1986, we had a skatepark in Milwaukee called the Turf a concrete park built in 1980 closed in 1983, it reopened in 1987. In Rockford, IL we had Rotation Station a former roller rink. In my home town in Lake county IL, we had a small indoor park in a former J.C. Penny's in the basement. It was named after the two high school sports teams.

[@brailleskateboarding]

That sounds epic

[@AndySo2000]

We had a park in Peoria Illinois called airwaves in the early 90s. We always heard about rotation station

[@USBYDProductions]

turf is still dead atm, there was some legal development and a concept was provided, but the project's been silent for about a year. big bummer

[@ThisOldSkater]

That was educational. Mad respect to these builders!

[@vdjKryptosRock]

Everyone says “I’m Aaron kyro and I'm a professional skateboarder from the San Francisco Bay Area,” but nobody asks “how is Aaron kyro and I'm a professional skateboarder from the San Francisco Bay Area.”

[@Rexcelot]

I'm actually about to start digging out a Bowl in my backyard, so all this info was amazing. Thank you Braille for everything you all do. 🤘

[@scizophrenic2602]

this guy and those with him are making so many people's lives better. 1000s of people will benefit from what he's doing. would be nice if they grow into my state and spread the love. some of these smaller towns only have maybe a couple parking lots to skate in and nothing more.

[@SoapworthyProductions]

Wow! This was an awesome video! The most informative one yet! Really stoked on Aaron being back and coming thru with instructional and informational videos. Radical!! Shred4Life

[@rickh3714]

They've sure moved on since the days of the Waihi bowl Rotary weekend type construction! First bowl ever in NZ 1976, that I skated as a kid a few days after it was built. Gnarly Bert's and (mostly) wipeouts shared with the adult surfers on the gently sloped but ROUGH concrete!

[@skatedad9794]

This was great! Very informative. You can tell this guy is passionate about what he does

[@illusions3272]

I enjoy these videos so much, they really encourage me to keep skating, thank you so much 🙂👍

[@pw1045]

Nice man this was much needed respect to all these designers/builders!

[@Crossfirepyro2]

Great video I worked for American skate parks Inc. back in 2002 was able to help build our local skate park for the community ! It was a lot of hard work but it was never a job it was a lot of fun and we got to test in skate everything way before it was even finished😎🔥

[@h7opolo]

any town with a skatepark shows that it loves its citizens.

[@DerrickNeff]

Skateparks everywhere these days. Love to see it 🔥🔥🔥🔥🤙🏻

[@brailleskateboarding]

Same, I also love some good old fashioned street skating, but skateparks are such a great thing for the community and kids not getting hit by cars skating in the street!

[@MAARTN]

Could you guys please do a tutorial how to make a small concrete quarterpipe? Like the wooden one you guys did with Keen Ramps. Would love to build one in my yard.

[@brailleskateboarding]

I think we would have to learn first 🤔

[@tylervanover8189]

as a guy who wants to diy sometime, this was an awesome video. thank you braille for this treat of a video!

[@alecbeck523]

Great info on the construction process of a skatepark! Cool to see the construction manager's inside look! Hope you partner with The Skatepark Project to do one on skatepark advocacy! That's something all the locals can get involved with and make something like this epic construction video happen!

[@Dimsious]

that's when you know your skatepark is gonna be lit when the contractor has work at 7am and skate sesh a 3pm

[@brailleskateboarding]

Hahahaha yes!!

[@williammadray7818]

I'm surprised that I haven't seen "pebble crete" used to finish/refinish skate bowls. It's used to refinish swimming pools in South Florida. The level of trowel ability to finish concrete that well;is off the hook.

[@Dimsious]

19:40 QUICK! Everyone act busy. Foreman is back. 😁😂

[@Domatrix-codm]

I wish south africa had atleast 2 skateparks per province, would make it accessible for skaters like me

[@2001kbass]

IM IN BILLINGS!! You should come and make a video at the park here!!

[@LeSkateWA]

"Not here to make money" "Its a passion for us" Respect

[@bombpwr]

Happy to know these guys are getting more recognition I follow these guys on instagram there parks are works of art, super mellow and plenty of lines, never skated one of their parks they need to come down to the southhern states, Florida doesn’t have a evergreen park and I would drive unholy amounts of miles just to skate one near me

[@brailleskateboarding]

I think Team Pain dominates that area as they are based in FL. They build some badass parks too

[@himebaughchris4026]

'Shot-Crete' is Fun. Vermiculite aggregate. I got round pool trowels too. 😃

I used to skate but I stopped and I just got back into at age of 25 feel like I'm starting all over again but I'm loving it and having fun falling aswell and getting back into it

Glad you’re getting back into it! When you’re 35 you’ll be really happy you started again at 25!

Hmmmm I am not sure of that math. Maybe $50? It honestly depends on so many factors like the obstacles and what type of landscape they are working with

the actual cool part about concrete skateparks is they will be around for eternity

[@brailleskateboarding]

You’d think so but they do deteriorate

[@AtomicSkulls]

Yes more braille

[@2001kbass]

Can these guys come make another park in Billings or even make the current one better.

[@brailleskateboarding]

I’m sure they can, someone just has to hire them to do it

[@robertlee8400]

Me being a BMX rider of 37 years have noticed that todays skateparks are not built for BMX & skateboards , it just Skateboards . Very seldom do come across one that’s built for both . With skateparks of today the reason they don’t let BMX bikes in skateparks is because we the BMX Community are labeled a liability & I don’t understand that & that seams not to be fair to one specific Community. Is it that a BMX bike can chip or crack the concrete or is it running steel pegs on rails or is it a mixture of both , I guess I,ll never no , & that’s because communities never tell BMX riders why we the BMX Community are labeled a liability & it sucks . I think they should either build a skatepark for both or if skaters get a skatepark so should the BMX Community also , that’s only fair .

[@bopo900]

maybe the same reason that there are bmx parks that wont let skateboarders in. why is it if a skater should get a park then a bmx community to. then the bobsledders should get their new track, then the pogo jumpers should get their new park. all because someone created a skate park. why do you concider it the same sport? im for it that every sport should get their own zone. but saying i should get it because a skater got it is wrong. if you gonna watch a SKATEBOARD channel then ofc you gonna see a skate park. watch some bmx channels. i bet you can find what you are looking for.

[@robbiewilson214]

Pegs, trucks, whatever, we’re all chunking away the concrete so I think it’s a pretty criticism. I honestly think we should have separate parks tho because BMX lines and skater lines are absolutely not the same, and it makes sharing the traffic absolutely hectic. Bikes move so fast, unless you know the exact line someone’s going for, you can never be sure if you’re gonna snake or get snaked

[@robbiewilson214]

also yeah there are absolutely bmx only parks lol

You don't really need the rebar , throw a strong concrete mix over a sand mould and smooth it out , but if you're not using rebar , you need a thicker layer of concrete😀😀😀😯😉😉😈😈😈, and for the park design , just use your skaters imagination😀😀😀😯😉😈😈😈
