• Once again Fulwell Mill! Or maybe the Uni at st peter's, ya kno the glass centre

• No need to go to South Shields! Vertex Slatepark, Toward Rd. New top venue, with shop
• Yes people in Sunderland do skate, here are two main places in Sunderland where people skate: 1) Mowbray Park lol, the skate spot here surverly lacks, mainly due to the fact it's on a hill, aswell as there only being a funbox and a quaterpipe there. 2) Vert-X skate park on Toward Road is good, however not being a fan of indoor skateparks. I'd much rather be out on the streets skating and being chased by security guards and police men and women. There is lots of other places i know of to skate in Sunderland, if your that interested contact me Mark Weldon at millenmarkus@hotmail.com

• The new park at sunderland (behind the winter gardens) is the best place for skating in sunderland town centre. It has nice windy flat paths and a little skate park which consists of a mini ramp and a fun box. This has proved a good place for all the moshers and sweatys to hang out GO THERE!
