Skateboarding Spots
  • New skateboard park stuck up out of the way at Penbeagle. Built there so the 'loveys' can drift round town looking at estate agents thinking no-one under 40 lives here. Was set fire to within days of opening anyway by some aspiring arsonist.
  • Behind St Ives Train station used to have home-made ramps/transitions/funboxes, and was visitable by others from local spots. Above the Lifeguard Hut on Meor is still a haunt, but it's getting that you have to travel to spots like Treneere in PZ or the bowl in Camborne. OG spots like Junior School are like Colditz now, except you can't get in rather than out.
  • outside the arcade
  • The new sommerfeild car park is where we all mainly skate, it's got flower bed gaps, waxed curbs and rails and a big sloping roll in with a flat bit at the top so you can filp into it. You can also skate the wallrides in porthgwidden car park. More out of town in Carbis Bay there are a few sets of steps outside the chemists with a handrail and on the other set there is a bar which comes out in front which you can clear.
  • Along the harbour front is about the onlt place possible to skate
  • Once upon a time there was an indoor ramp. More information, please.
