Vans Pro Park Series Championships - First Look At This Insane Park!
Here is the first look at the finished park - INSANE!
It's almost here - the Vans Pro Skate Park Series Championships from Malmö, Sweden! With an insanely rad park, that was built just for this event, the women's skateboarding comp is going to be off the charts.
Bryggeriet and Dreamland Skateparks came together to create The Kroksback Skatepark, designed specifically for the Vans Pro Skate Park Series.
The park has two types of coping - pool coping in one spot with pool tiles below it, and "double pipe" coping in another for super fast grinds. There is a huge island in the middle for launching tricks, and the design elements are between 5-9 ft throughout the park. There is even a huge wall that is "set back" so you have to ollie up to get to it and you'd better stick that ollie coming down from there too. Crazy. We are seriously looking forward to seeing what lines the girls decide to take.
