From prefab to Grindline

The cities of Cleveland and Coshocton Ohio bought the easy fix solution for a skateboard park. Both had skate parks built to be disposable likely banking on the idea it was a fad. Both used the prefabricated ramps by a company not worth mentioning. They installed these prefab ramps on a concrete slab and said, "here's your skate park." Now these parks have reached the end of their life and both cities are in the planning stages of building new concrete skate parks.

Facts:
Cleveland population 500,000. Coshocton population 12,000. Cleveland prefab park on a concrete slab. Coshocton prefab park on a concrete slab. Cleveland removes it's prefab park (March 2010). Coshocton removes it's prefab park (February 2010).

Both Cleveland and Coshocton are now planning new concrete skate parks. Both will be designed by world class park builder Grindline.

We'll be in Wheeling!

Typically hearing that from my wife would result in a big sigh. I'm thinking oh no I have to go to my redneck in laws house in West Virginia (only kidding). Hearing this now gets me very excited when this gem is right down the road from grandma.  Thanks to my understanding wife and her very nice uncle I got to enjoy this park for a few hours. All the women in the family celebrated mothers day by going to Pittsburgh for dinner and a show.  Look at more pictures of this amazing skate park here.

Coshocton Skate Park Dot Org

Just bought my first website CoshoctonSkatePark.org and am getting it up and running. Not a whole lot there right now. I am helping Coshocton Ohio get a nice concrete skatepark since the city's first attempt failed. This time it will be done right by professionals that actually understand skateboarding! So bookmark CoshoctonSkatePark.org it will be your source for the latest on the progress!

must drive far then shred gnar

Just finished the cat and the hat. Then onto the interwebs and saw these amazing photos of this buttery-smooth grindline park and thought to myself...


I will do my part to stimulate the economy by purchasing fuel for my car...
then driving real far...
then off to the store to buy some doritos to snack on while I shred the gnar...

*over here  they discuss venturing to this brand new gem all the way from kentucky... must be something special about this place
