The Katikati Skatepark underwent a face lift and new extension of street and transitional styled elements implemented along a long finger extending from the original skatepark.
Concrete grinding was used on the existing surfaces that had been worn away from years of weathering and use to create a smooth and clean finish. Various elements including a wollie block, manual pad and standard ledge extended from the original environment leading into a more transitional environment including a vert quarter pipe, rising quarter pipe and an innovative skate obstacle.
Skaters and BMXers in Katikati now have a great new skate environment that will keep them entertained for years to come while providing a destination for fellow users to stop and stretch their legs in the Western Bay of Plenty.

"Albany skatepark is very fun with creative lines and a little street area with ramps, ledges, stairs, quarter pipe and manual pads."
