Reviewing the skatepark layout, I have to say this is one big, serious skatepark! Lots of lines. The quality of the concrete is unbelievably good, especially when you consider the concrete has problems in anything under 40 degrees. Smooth transitions and lots of obstacles thrown at you from all directions. Yes, the two extension walls with the channel in the flow area, have pool coping block. The extension on the other side of the flow area and over the spine, is slanted back and it's going to take some man-sized skating to get a grind off that beast. The Combi-bowl is very big and I'm glad to report, the round pool portion is curved in at the edges and made to go back-to-back and not be a one-hit-wonder. The hipsﾠare amazing, low-high, high-low and different on each side as they go into the shallow portion. Since the shallow is square, you are going to need to check your speed or go Mach into the down-Waterfall portion, then into the round. Although this skatepark seems to be placed in the most unusual, out-of-the-way location, the quality of work that Artisan has done so far is outstanding. I have to commend their dedication. Good Job.
