Skate Park

The Chatswood Skate Park is on the corner of Albert Avenue and Orchard Road, next to Chatswood Oval. It’s close to the trains and buses, so it’s pretty easy to get to.

The skate park has recently been upgraded. To make sure that the facility is up to date, Council recieved advice from a design and construction company that specialises in skate parks. The following changes were made:

• surface repairs and improvements
• replacement of the drainage pit lid
• old concrete rail replaced with 'duragal' rail
• garden bed, 'hubba' ledges and stand alone ledges removed
• new bank, ledge and 400mm high flat rail
• old ledge replaced with 500mm high x 500mm wide ledge with 'duragal' angle
• new 450mm high ledge with 75mm x 75mm 'duragal' angle 

The old concrete rails have been replaced with metal rails, and there are new ledges, a bank and additional rails.

The park has a 5ft open bowl at one end and a 5ft flatbank at the other, as well as a central pyramid, a 3ft mini, heaps of ledges of varying heights and lengths, some rails, and a funbox. In other words, heaps of lines!

There’s also shade and water for hot days.

While you are at teh park please make sure you throw your rubbish in the bin to ensure the surface of the park is always ready for riding. If there is rubbish on the skate park surface you are most welcome to come down to the Chatswood Youth Centre during centre hours to borrow a broom or have a chat to staff about any issues.

Chatswood Youth Centre also now has a range of great Skramp mini-skate facilities on the rooftop, available for skaters and scooter riders to use. These include ramps, pads, and rails and are accessible during centre hours.
