that got me too 😅 Totally excusable. I think to sydney siders, sydney's west has a totally different demographic and is a totally different area. Love the videos ❤️
Oh my! Xmas just came early !!! Place looks amazing!!! I do love it when you say “ im not good at transition “ then drop a line i can only dream of 😂😂 Sick b/270 out bud. Yeeeepppppp
Was thinking exactly the same.. every video “ohhhh I’m not very good at transition” then does a line only someone who is good at transition can do. I just see it as crying wolf at this stage! Love you Leon, but your just wasting valuable time talking hot air when you could be LEARNING TO SKATE TRANSITION! 😂 … better!
The old park that wasnt prefab was across the ‘road’. The prefab used to be on the same site as the new park. Park looks alright. Definitely wish it was there 10-18 years ago
Wish it was there 25 years ago. I mean I remember skating that shitty old mini ramp. Sad that back then, those were pretty much the only “parks” around. Terrible.
This park looks so nice! Next time I'm in Sydney will definitely check it out. That wall into the rock is so cool. Such a nice flowy park! Thanks for all the info!
Sick vid, wanting to get to this park for ages. Definitely want to hit that mini.. I came to ask is it still slippery as hell? That’s the main thing I have heard from folks reviewing this park..
even just looking at it that parks slippery. Its probably got a bit of bite to it but if you push that weight too far you're deffs sliding out. Judging by looks though. edit: 101A might be an issue though FR
It's super fun man, definitely worth it! The park feels like it's worn in and lost that iciness new parks usually have when they open so I didn't feel like I ever lost control or was at risk of slipping out at all 👌🏼
Don't go here any time that the kids aren't in school. It's a scooter nightmare. The design makes it impossible to skate as kids can come from everywhere. Even the mini has kids riding across the flat. Also the parents seem to treat it like daycare and have no interest in keeping their kids safe. Having said that early morning or weekdays it's a blast.
Is this the best transition park in Sydney?
yes
@LeonPaxton you are the first person to ever call Lane Cove “Sydney’s west” 😂😂😂
Just so people not from Sydney have an idea of where it is lol
Lower north shore 🤣🤣
north Sydney is a bit more fitting 😂
that got me too 😅 Totally excusable. I think to sydney siders, sydney's west has a totally different demographic and is a totally different area. Love the videos ❤️
@@mattypaxton it’s just up the road from North Sydney. I’m afraid Leon is just gunna have to take the L on this one haha. Love his park videos though.
Seeing photos of the original park brings back memories, 1/4 and bank was rough. The new park looks nice, miss skating.
It definitely looks rough!
The ramp into the rock wall is super cool!
It's so sick but super high!
90% of Lane Cove residents just fainted after being referred to as a Sydneys West suburb 😁
North West, close enough 😂
Oh my! Xmas just came early !!! Place looks amazing!!! I do love it when you say “ im not good at transition “ then drop a line i can only dream of 😂😂
Sick b/270 out bud. Yeeeepppppp
Haha I've got a few tricks but they're very limited!
You would love this park though 🙌🏼
@ i can see myself there very soon… hey… i got the new double locks x99 yesterday… my lord Leon, you are going to dig em… crazy good pinch and slide
Hell yeah, they actually sound sick!

Hahaha I've got some basics but my transitions skills don't go very far after that lol
Been waiting for this video lol. This is near me. Just bought my first board so im looking forward to skating it!
Oh sick, this park will be super fun to start then!
It gets hammered by scooter kids who love the transition.
I can imagine lol
Great vid! I really like the layout of this park 🤙
Thank you! Yeah the park is super fun 🙌🏼
What a sick skatepark
That rock vert wall is so cool. I've never seen anything like that
Yeah that feature is so sick!
RAHHHH 5:14 CAMMERAY SKAKEPARK MENTIONED!!! LOCAL FOR LIFE!!!!
Hell yeah, that's a sick park too!
cammeray has always been one of the greats
I'll hopefully do a video there in the next few months 🤞🏽

Oh true, so this is technically the second version at that exact location then lol

Yeah dude, it's a super fun park for sure!
Looks fun
Been there once a few months ago and it was great. Too slippery though, prob need a few more months.
Bro thats blackman park, wow damn it took yeaaaaarssss to build this, 15+
Mannn we need some hella upgrades in Brisbane!! But Syd looks dope! Great Content leon putting on for the skaters good work homie🙏🙏💪💪🔥🔥
Thanks dude! Yeah Sydney is getting so spoilt with parks lately lol
Concrete, formwork and some tubing. 1 million haha
Thanks for your vid brother
That middle gnarly section with the uneven coping is a total fail. Who’s gonna skate that?
🤦♀️
No worries dude, thanks for watching!
Yeah that thing is super gnarly lol
I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on Cammeray Skatepark
I used to love that park as a teen! I’ll definitely make a video there 👌🏽

Yeah it's definitely got that new skatepark slickness to it but didn't feel like I was loosing control or at risk of slipping out at any point 👌🏼
It's super fun man, definitely worth it!

@@LeonPaxton Yewwww thanks for the update dawggg. You da man. I might take some softer wheels just incase :) Skkkreeeet.
I find it hard to believe this was intended to be anything but a scooter kid park.
Can you do banjo skatepark Terrigal central coast
Yeah that park is sick! I’ll definitely hit it again next time I’m up that way 👌🏽

That's a good tip, we went early morning on a week day to avoid the rush lol
There'd be some room for skaters at night if it wasn't lights out at 8 😢
@@bakedbeings Yep annoying 😒 Spend thousands on lights switch them off early same thing happened in Meadowbank.
@ Haha the lights are pretty hilarious at Meadow, how their on in summer until 7 and turn off with the sun still out 😂
@@bakedbeings Exactly
We only just got something similar here in 2024 made from wood, and there's no way im skating tranny without breaking every bone in my body
Haha that's how I feel!
