  skatepark3-630x390   So last weekend saw the Preston Skate Park Opening Jam and lets just say the newly poured concrete was shredded until the unsuspected sun disappeared for the night. Expectations high, skaters descended from all over to give the Norths newest park a good seeing too. A heavy LBP presence working behind the scenes, local skate legend Frosty helping out, it was certain to be a good day. Freestyle, one of the UK's leading skate park construction companies took on the contract to build the park as part of the Moor Park restoration. Costing £320,000, it's worth every penny. Not a ledge in sight, just strictly transition! Situated right across the road from Preston North End football stadium it's easy to find/get too and it's 100% worth a visit. So if you're ever in the area go take a look for yourself, plus there's free parking too so no excuses.   preston opening Welsh Alan, Back Smiths the deep end.   Since Preston is one of Manchester's neighboring cities. It was inevitable that some of our family would make an appearance including The Black Sheep's veteran Mr Eddie Belvedere. You also saw the likes of Josh 'Man Head' Young, Same Pulley, Frosty, Sam Mason, Rooney, Sox and many more slashing the fresh pool coping. Paul Graham behind the camera lens as seen above with Welsh Alan's, Back Smith. Catch the whole gallery over on the Sidewalk Magazine site. As for the edit, you don't need to look any further than below....       Big up to everyone involved for giving the North yet another amazing place for not only the kids to go shred but also us old dudes! Massive thanks to Bob Frost, chair of Preston Skate Park Projects for making it happen.
