CEO of Premium Skate Designs, Jason Parkes, is a man of few words. We were able to swipe away the cloud of concrete dust that surrounds this upcoming project for a few short moments. It was just enough time to obtain some cold hard facts from the trowel-wielding legend.
The PSD team break ground on the build around the 20th March, with completion planned for the end of May. They gave up the bare basic specs. There’s a snake run/track leading into the bowl, which is 4′ in the shallow end, 8′ in the deep end with concrete coping all around.
Hopefully these pics are enough to get your mouth watering. Make plans for mid year, just leave your bike pegs at home.
