Skateboarding Spots
- kent street
- The trinity road youth center has a prety good sk8 park, the owners a good guy. It's near Lindsey lower school
- crown court
- Down sea front to the ledge, mostly on sundays with the locals down there and the veterans danny,benzy,rik,gaz you know em haha then all the new boys. Its fun come down chill out
- The banks behind Matalan comet or whatever shops they are ( near the fly over) Also 2 nice fat blue rails there. 2 nobheads come out to try kick you off but it doesnt work. 8 set at the cop station, thats good. Theres a shoddy handrail near the fly over near the docks, and there's also clairmont rails. The right hand side been pushed down a bit, you need a bit of ply to prop up the bulidng to kickturn at the top of. Check the site Sam (binman) Made www.gyskate.tk
- courts, leisure centre
- There's a skatepark just of freemo but i hear it's not all that good and frequented by yobs. The crem has closed down, but there's a big group of people called GYPO working to to get an indoor skatepark and i hear they're very close to their financial targets. Otherwise check outside the town hall / magistrates court and also outside franklin college there's usually a few.
- The spots in grimsby to visit are the courts kent street if der aint loads of idiots around the car show room and the multistory car park der gud and everyting else is crap.
- The courts again for skateboarding, better than crappy leisure centre car park with their puny one ledge ¬_¬
- the two kurbs on the junction of milyon road and first ave on the nunny. but watch out for the locals.
- Lidls car park on Cromwell Road. Nice smooth flatland, a few waxed curbs. A nice ledge round the corner, and a good sloping curb for nose manuals etc. Dont go too late, cos the people come out of their houses and start on you :P lol!
- mostly the courts or outside the barge some kick ass flatland bmx :D so kick ass grinds round the courts :D urm i like the carpark near somerfeilds cus o the big spiraly ramp thing :S gotta watch out for security tho like to chuck us out
- The Auditorium car park, great for flatland tricks and practicing the basics (esp manuals). There's quite a few kerbs there too, and its only around the corner from the Leisure centre spot.
Another spot would be outside Franklin College. Just make sure you go when college is closed, or else you will get thrown off.
- Check out Morrisons. It's rocks all the way to Russia.
- Healing, No idea why but 90% of healing residents skate!
- down sea front nr old offshore shop every weekend,old school locals with rails etc..,the courts,round back of leisure..look out for 10 yr old ripper called ellis
- Round the back of the lesuir center is cooool. There is a nice slope for tricks down and round the front there is a 5 and a 7 set. Also go down to the boating lake for a nice 3, 2,and 5 sets
- Kent Street skate park, i designed it. It is alrite if you go down in the day when the little kids are at school but anyother time it is PAP. The courts is the most legendary skate spot in Grimsby go there and be amazed by the amazin akteing there (by me and the G.Y.S.C) who are currently making a video.
- At last, a CONCRETE skatepark in Grimsby!! It's in Kent Street at the resource centre - BIG shout out to the guys who pestered the council for it!!
- The krem shut down ages ago and as far as i know there are no skate parks in grimsby or cleethorpes.... mind you there are tales of a new one being built near the GMAA (Grimsby Martial Arts Academy).
- round the centre of town outside the barge
- the crown courts(weekends)
Morrisons(the manager and security guards kick you off unless the shop's closed)
- Harvest moon carpark there are pipes whick everyone grinds on.
- Down the courts is the best place to go*
- the stuff on the sk8 park at wonderland is now out of date,it went ages ago the one at the back of cromwell rd is still going ok.
Big up to all the original sk8ers,writers,still going strong...
- could you send me pictures of the spots where people skate
- The Krem - cool
- Blade park..The Krem top spot
- ASDA car park
- There's a new skatepark down Meggis! at the infamous Dudley Bowers WONDERLAND & it's open until midnight. Featuring three vert-walls, 6ft high funbox, Driveway with handrails and a mini-ramp under construction, all of £1 an hour. Smashing! P.S.S Message from Lee Byatt & Charles Wells, shouts goin out to tha old skool painting crew i.e. TENSER, ROAB Q and all the Ainsly street park crew. :)
- Behind Do It All and Queensway: Long stretch of brick banks with curb lip. Some high, some low. Some steep, some mellow. Evenings only. Crown Courts: Nice steps, good long wall, white block (long). Pretty dry, well lit. Nice surface. 6-10pm. It's best not to skate round the court houses on yer tod unless you look like you might put up a bit of a fight ;-). And then don't lay it on too much - Grimbarians have this strange attitude whereby if there are five of you and one of him then you have to make sure that between the five of you you can kick the crap out of him.
- the krem skatepark opened late july massive half pipe ,midi and mini ramps also street course way cool!!
