Skateboarding Spots
  • The skatepark in South Park used to be alright before the chavs over run it. I wouldn't bother... Get yourself down to Redcar for the Chunky Monkey skate park.
  • Anywhere except parks, mainly in the town centre.
  • I skated years back in Newton Aycliffe, theres now a small skate park there just near tescos with a fun box a mini ramp and a few quarter pipes. I was the first person to wax the block under the ramp in newton aycliffe town centre but sadly thats now been railed off mind you you could probably skate the rail!!
  • Ther r a few 7 sets in the tk maxx carpark, its really smooth too and under a roof. Also ther is a 5 set at the town hall.
  • the white house is pretty decent- a good 3 and 2 set for beginners-basically just across the rad from saks RAC in town near boyes is also a good place to skate- a good ledge with a cool drop to ollie over and a steep 3 and 4 set set outside maximes is possibel but hard there is a great 9-set behind the art centre
  • Skinnergate has a decent run, and then stop at In Arcadia to check out the street from the cafe.

  • this is namely for bmxers and its the church there is some really nice wallrides on the floodlight cages but watch out for incoming pikeys and townies you will here there calling of "ere giz ya bike" or " E I O brown sugar" oh and watch out for the vicar he isn't to happy when he spots you riding on the cages as we find out, avoid all pikeys and townies at all cost as one of my mates just got beaten up and got his £2000 bike swiped and as we are all riding atleast £1500 bmx's or trials bikes were a prime target for jumping
