There is actually a pretty big skatepark out in Roscam as well, I notice that alot of them have popped up since I was a young lad when all the skaters used to meet at the Spanish Arch

Are any of them good for taking photos (e.g. people doing good/big moves rather than the usual that you see- someone skating from a to be, trying to jump off the ground and that's it).

Cheers,
Pa.
