You can tell us more about Bideford.

• Bideford used to be my favourite place to skate, being an old gent i enjoyed kick flipping my way to jubilee square all day long. Mainly for the young guys that hang out there! I love the following homeboys with all my heart : John Molesworth / Stockers / Ewington the special vicorboy / Danny Payne / Biron and his BF craig cannon / Sam Oats / Tony Clubfoot / and Cuddley Kevin Harries :)
• SkatePark at the end of the car park by the quay. spine Mini leading to subbox and flat bank which leads to 2 shallow crappy quarters at the end of the park with another crappy fglatbank with subbox. IN the midle of the park is a driveway with box across and down it next to a jump box leading to flat bank and steep quarter. Ground is rough and eats boards, close to the beach and hence has a layer of sand over it...transitions are pretty crap too, big holes before most of the ramps make dropping in interesting to say the least. I had a damn good skate there though and the locals were pretty friendly, worth a visit if you're stuck in the area.

• I think youll find a waxed curb within 10 m of anywhere you go in bideford. However, if you want a proper scate park, go to the end of the park car park along the quay. Its quite new but dont go there if your not very good. Its quite slippery and people dont take kindly to you getting in the way when you fall over
• skatepark is wicked full of punk rockers ,get down there for a skate
• they've built the skatepark in bideford now and thats pretty much where everyone hangs out now,parks alright its got a mini ramp with spine(5ft), driveway,big quarter(6ft),3 flat banks,2 mini quarters,jumpbox, sub box .But its made of metal.
• Edgehill has small undercover (lit at night) section with manual rolls, grenville has lots of steps and the legendary grenville bank, backside ollied by hot local person chewy louie. NEW KICKIN STEPS AT BIDEFORD COLLEGE! LIT AT NIGHT! (a bit). Bowls at devonshire park (crap). Supposedly they're building a proper park sometime. Meanwhile pilgramages from all over the world are often held to the 'Sam Wiseman three' a set of steps in grenville which the legendary SAM WISEMAN himself OLLIED! With no hands and everything! The guy is AMAZING.
• Drainage ditch on the east (water) side only worth skating if it hasn't rained for a while. Also slidey benches and curbs on the quay. Bideford Secondary School: four steps + one flight twice as big. Various handrails. Waxed up curb. Low bench and normal bench on Quay (outside Kneels). Grindy curbs at Safeway (totally crap).
