  • There's not really any for begginners in hinckley, I am a beginner myself, and find skating down the big hill near Clarenden Parl quite fun.
  • Council offices are ok but you might get bollocked by the security just go down town center on sunday and its quite empty other than that its all crap :{
  • Well, I doubt there are any decent skate parks in hinckley, if there were they'd all be ruined by the horrible chavs. But the skaters are often all in skate groups and hang around town benches or abandoned factories!

  • ok, i'm writin from Queensland in Australia, I have lived and riden in Hinckley since the begining of time... the original Lidl crew still reside In the area although sadly the infamous "lidl" skatepark has now been demolished 9not without a damm good fight and a few protesting fire attacks and has been replaced by a F@#king car wash of all things.... great now Hinckley has 5 carwash's and not a single decent skate park for those stuck in Hinckley to enjoy... however according to a recent email Burbage has recently aquired a new park..... not sure what sort of standard the park is but nether the less it is there... go check it out... big up the Hinckley massive, all HHBC members and of course the original "lidl crew" imortalised forever by the infamous "hundred hand slap".... you know who you are.

  • Skatepark by Lidl on Hawley Road, Kwicksave car park on Brunel Road or the Mount Road car park and the council offices. (go in and demand a proper indoor skatepark while you are there)
