Is this the best new skatepark in Sydney now?
is it? you tell us haha
this park is crazy
@@skateboardstrength9834 It’s looking that way at the moment and I’m loving it lol
Sydney parks are straight shitting on California parks🤦
Yeah we’re getting super spoilt over here!
44 million dollerydoos. It's like 12 million freedom bucks.
lol just a good 12 mil' bald eagle bucks
Wth how many skate parks does Australia have at this point California is looking like a joke.
Australia is apparently the skatepark capital of the world at this point judging from watching Leon’s channel 😂
I have 20 within a 30 minute drive it's crazy these days. I wish we had this many growing up
The thing is, Leon only covers Sydney! (He’s also covered a few a couple of hours out).
Yeah dude, all of this is only in one state too 😂
Yeah, all of these Australia parks make the parks here in Oregon look pathetic
Skatepark in this vid cost 2 mil - th-cam.com/video/NZUDr-E6flM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=iajdreg_oOjHtVic
This gipps street recreation precinct in Claremont Meadows opens 7 days from 6am to 10:30pm.After sunset flood lights are on 7 days.Lot of families enjoy at night too. I like playing there cricket,table tennis,basketball,net ball, fitness machines.Plenty of parking on park.Thanks to penrith city council.
Looks awesome! Is it not open cause if 44 and a half peeps turn up in the next day or so they are getting a million dollarydoo ride each 🤜🤛
Hell yeah! Appreciate you Leon thanks heapsss
All good my man! We'll do it again soon 🤝🏽
44million sounds like a lot but looking at all the facilities thats going on in that precinct, looks like good money spent. When you tack on a skatepark into a community focused project like how they did here, its hard to get on the wrong side of the NIMBYs (who pretty much oppose all community projects). Good way to build a cohesive community beyond just skateboarders
That’s true, there really is so much here!
Nice video, Leon. The wood chip dilemma continues lol
Thanks dude!
Yeah I don’t think it will ever stop 😂
What’s your homies channel? Didn’t see a link
Damn, I did my man dirty 😂
Just added his link in the description 👌🏽
thank you to both of you
The parks in SoCal look like bike parks now compared to Australia. 🇦🇺 crazy part is Australia is huge.
How much Area are you covering to get to these parks? Hours? Days? lol 😂
What’s the radius of distance between some of these nice parks.
Lucky devil. 😈 Great parks.
Expensive prices for your gear. ⚙️ only draw back to skateboarding in Australia I see, you have to pay like almost double.
Dude this is all within the same state too! The furthest park was Umina and that was only 2hrs, the rest are all within a 1hr radius lol
Yeah we are way too spoilt out here at the moment 😅
I live 10 minutes from the city in Sydney. It would take me 50 minutes to drive to this park. 2 hours on a train + bus.
Though where I live you can hit 10+ skateparks within 15 minutes on public transport. Australia realised how good skateparks are to keep youth occupied.
This beats the most expensive skatepark record. SMP skatepark in China cost 37 million and Penrith 44 million. SMP was the most expensive skatepark ever built until Penrith.
first nice vid
Thanks dude!
Man, why I have to be so old!? This park would have fit my skate style so well.
W's only
man I want to move to Australia
🛹😱😱😍😍😍🇧🇷🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
looks like a D.I.Y.
😮❤
Dang Leon, you live in basically California South with all those amazing parks in your area. Which durometer wheels work best for smooth slippery parks like this one?
Oh dude, we are getting way too spoilt out here thats for sure!
I just use standard 99a man but something with a little wider riding surface for more grip 👌🏽
WOW! That place looks INCREDIBLE!!
It's so good!
Great Review.
You Blokes Rip.
Thanks Ace.
Thanks again legend!
Big bowl look weird with whole not needed hump, small bowl looks normal, that middle area with snake rails looks like some sort of pro zone, and actual skatepark is nice for ledge and plaza. The wide areas and hubas look cool, but kinda high. I guess it's 44 mil, right xD
Those noodle rails look like a blast and I think I'd spend a whole day just on the slappy pad / granite slider combo thingy. your boardslide to tail tapper was noice
Another great review!
Oh dude they are so fun!
Thanks man 🙏🏽
Thanks for another top review Leon. We have a crew heading there tomorrow morning, early!!!
Thanks for watching man 🙏🏼 Yeah definitely recommend an early morning on a weekend, this place will get packed out quick!
Love the new video bro! And that skatepark looks amazing perfect place to learn lots of new things
Thanks dude! Yeah the park is amazing 🙌🏻
I agree, I don't like the humps in bowls we find now! Im not a bowl or vert guy so maybe Im missing something!
Apparently it’s to pump over to keep your speed so you don’t loose speed on a long flat bottom
You absolutely destroyed that place!
Thanks dude, I’ve skated it twice now and still can’t wait to go back again lol
Love these skatepark tour vids 🤝
Thanks dude, thanks for watching 🙏🏼
I’m just happy to watch u skate man
Thanks dude, you’re a legend!
Loving this ty kindly
Thanks for watching 🙏🏽
This place is SICKKKKKKK!
It’s so good!
Looks sick can't wait to skate it
It’s so good!
This park looks like a blast
It’s so good!
Come up to Lismore in Nth NSW in a couple of months - they are getting an EPIC 3.5 million park , should be done hopefully by March/April 2025
Dude, that park looks insane! I'll definitely be making my way up there when that one is open 👌🏼
@@LeonPaxton sweet, see you there
Good video 👍🏿
Thank you 🙏🏼
Idk why street skater never gets it, humps are for pumping you don't want to push in a bowl just pump the hump to accelerate.
I am a street skater, and thats the first thing I thought of. Its a long flat in the middle, so just put down a hump to pump. Like you said, you don't want to take your foot off the board for a push. Especially since "transition" relies a lot on skating ambidextrous. That said, some of those humps ruined a couple of street parks by adding the feature. I had a local where they put one down before the manny/ledge box. So when you lined up to hit the box, you couldn't see it over the hump.
That makes sense! You can tell I don’t skate transition so I don’t know 😂
It's my pet peeve to why oh why have woodchips it ruins a great park anywho rant ova, top shite Cobba keep on ripping....
Oh dude, it never ends 😂
Second time I went back the big bowl was full of wood chips 🙄
@@LeonPaxton 🤐yup...😉🙂
What so is the 2 skateparks in Penrith now cos I only ever Kew of one only there?
This one is about 15mins away from ‘Jamison’ skatepark in Penrith
@@LeonPaxton ok mad that’s good to know thanks .
Jay shreds!
