i know alot of you guys skate/fruitboot/bmx so i figured i'd post this up here and in the PBS..
you can submit your local parks, along with pics, to the database (they won't appear till an admin approves them though). enjoy

oh... and i might as well toot my own horn, i designed/programmed the site. if you happen to find any bugs email me at

how old are you jox? im 29... it's not a matter of age, i skate with a 45 yr old down at our park once a week or so.

looks handy - can you not get an upload form for peoples pics on there or did I miss that?
- jox0
I'm 24, skated when I was 12-13 or so.
And i dunno about US, but I would honestly find it very hard to not be laughing if I saw a 45 y/o skater. No offence, it's just not very common here.
- tfs__mag0
when you go to the form, you put in the information first... then it takes you to a page to upload the pics... i was weary about putting it all on one page. maybe i should put a little blurb on the first page about loading pics on the second page?

oh cool - yeah Id put something in there about pics on the first page

on a different note, it seems like a very handy little site. Would love something similar for ski resorts!

hahah 24... there are like 10 guys in your age range that i skate with here. it's not uncommon here to see several guys that are late twenties and into their thirties skating. i guess people take themselves a little too serious over there?

thx for the positive feedback jox/rasko...
- jox0
you're absolutely right, way too serious. It's quite sad to be honest and I'm no better than the rest.

hey tfs... nice site! i needed this on my skate road trip last year. its nice to have a source to read about how good a park is and see pics.
- tfs__mag0
yeah, unfortunately i just discovered a bug on the admin side that caused the pics directory to disappear!!! now i have to restore a backup... damnit damnit damnit!!!
the good news is i fixed the bug, the bad news is it's gonna be a couple hours before the pics are back... damn it all to hell.

this is the sort of blunder one would expect from someone your age who still insists on riding a kids skating board on what God intended cars to be parked on.
- tfs__mag0
haha... god intended cars to be parked in bowls?

sounds like a surreal breakfast!

I'm old (25) and I skate :). Most of the people I skate with are in their mid 20's to mid 30's. I was skating Blackpool park last weekend and there was a bloke well into his 40's ripping.
