A good skatepark, that is, what kind of skatepark? Learn the 5 key rules!

From riders for riders

It's hard to imagine a good skatepark designed by someone who has never stood on a quarterpipe or scored a spectacular soil on a tube. It is the experience of riding that allows one to understand how users navigate the facility, which lines are natural and which are forced. When designing concrete and modular skateparks, we don't just think about forms and shapes - we think about movement!

That's why at Techramps we operate under the principle "from riders for riders". Each of our designers and developers has roots in skateboarding, rollerblading, or BMX. It is thanks to this that we know the importance of the right radius on the quarter pipe, the height of the handrail or the angle of the bank, which "carries" instead of inhibiting the flow of the ride.

Built by professionals

A skatepark is not a playground. It is a sports infrastructure that must be precisely designed and solidly constructed. Not only aesthetics are at stake, but, above all, durability and user safety.

Construction of concrete skateparks requires experience in working with concrete, proper reinforcement and pouring technology. In the case of modular skateparks, what matters is the precision of installation and the quality of the materials used. Only professional teams that specialize in this type of implementation can ensure quality that will last for years of intensive use.

The approach to the tender and the conceptual (design) stage itself will also be important. You can read more about mistakes made at the initial stage HERE.

FLOW - a smooth ride over obstacles

Flow is a word that has an almost magical meaning in the rider community. It means a smooth ride without unnecessary stops, without unnecessary turns, with a natural rhythm.

A good skatepark design is not a collection of random obstacles, but a well thought-out layout in which each element has its place. The quarter leads to the funbox, from which you can smoothly enter the rail or manual pad. It is the FLOW that determines whether users will return to the facility every day or visit just once to check out a new park.

Quality and for years

The skatepark works every day - hundreds of wheels, rollers and decks leave their marks. Added to this are rain, frost, sun and extreme temperatures. That's why a good skatepark must be made of the highest quality materials and with attention to every detail.
At Techramps, we rely on solutions that stand the test of time. Concrete skateparks are the most durable and weatherproof, but modular structures, with proper care, can also last for years. The key lies in the quality of construction and thoughtful design.

Safety first

Skatepark is a place for extreme sports, so safety must be an absolute priority. It's not only about the proper distances between obstacles, but also about the finishing of the edges, the quality of the surface, or proper slopes for water drainage.

A well-designed facility minimizes the risk of injury without limiting the ability to ride. It's an art of finding the balance between adrenaline and common sense.
