Both Twizel and Cromwell have almost identical parks but the Twizel one wins as it as actually skateable. Cromwell is a bit of a joke. Directions Head for the swimming pool.

Pretty basic park, probably not all that much thought gone into it. Fun little taco thing at one end but the best feature was the ‘Skatepark’ sign. Of course the council saw that people were having too much fun so they blocked off the run in. Directions In the middle of some huge park just off the main road.

Newer park with lots of good hips and fun lines. The bowl section never really gets steep enough to grind the coping but otherwise still a fun park with good flow. Directions Take the Lincoln Road exit off the North Western Highway and its on the left just past Pizza Hut in Te Pai Park. Simple.

Don\’t you hate it when a town that already has a skate park gets a brand new extension, while other towns that have been trying for ages to get anything still have nothing. Oh well, go skate here anyway, it rules. The old park is some ancient asphalt mounds and hips while the new park has some great grinders, wedges,...

A few random wooden structures added to the permanent concrete features. Nothing really stands out but skaters are meant to be creative, right? Directions Tucked in behind the shops like they are trying to hide it.

Fools beware, don’t fuck with the ghetto. This place means business and so do the locals. Nah, just messin wit ya. Weird layout that is hard to suss out but some unique lines hidden throughout. Head there for a challenge. Directions Linwood Ave.
