i was just wondering if anybody had any thoughts on what is the best skatepark in Ireland??

It's between Bushy and Greystones really depending on how brave you're feelin'!
Hopefully Belfast will be a contender for the title when thats done next summer.

You're right on two counts.... first Horse you are Crazy if you think Monkstown is the best skatepark in Ireland and secondly your first look was correct, it is crap!

But saying that, it's a matter of taste and if thats yours then so be it.

I reckon it's a rhino park built in concrete. And a 6ft wide mini?! That to me sums the park up building a mini that skinny is unforgiveable.

I comepletely agree with the mini idea and if they took away the blue and orange ramps and put in a bowl and a few other bigger ramps it would be good, plus your idea of a 6ft wide mini, the small one is sh1te

greystones isn't that good, there's not even a plain rail just one of those weird rainbow ones that are boring after 3 grinds.

Tramore is my favourite park.

Galway really needs a new one, the two modular ones suck. I think I saw another modular in Parkmore??!! the other week.

The local councillor is mates with the importer of the lego parks.
