Overview
The Draft Backman Park Skate Park Concept Design has been developed. You're invited to give feedback on this design by attending a workshop, filling in the survey or by writing to us.
Background
Our skate park designers, Convic, hosted two community workshops in October 2022 (pre-design) to help develop a concept for the skate park. Convic used feedback from those workshops to develop the 'draft concept design' and we want to hear from you about this design.
From the October workshops:
- SkateTypology - Participants favoured a transition style park with the inclusion of some street elements.
- Skill Level – Intermediate was the most common but the design is still inclusive of provision for skill progression, allowing for beginners through to advanced levels
- Skate Vision- An interesting creative facility which is made of transition style obstacles that are unique and create flow; including a mini ramp, spine, volcanos, vert wall and euro gap.
- User and Spectator Amenity – A space for spectators and different user groups with break out areas and shade
- Iconic Elements and Local Identity - A range and choice of benefits and experiences that include active and passive recreation within a natural bushland setting.
