That’s my local it so the ramps are perfect. The rails are so good for scooters and skateboards. I’ve probably seen about 14 professional BMX riders in the bowl and the mega bowl is 14 foot the biggest one in New South Wales right now. I was on nine news the other night because the guy that came up with the idea of the park came and got the videos of me and my mates

Got to start giving parts of the park nicknames. To give the place some character. Like the red metal structures that look like magnets, so they're called, "The Magnets", which I expect over time will be shortened to, "the mags", "mags", or "maggies". I also noticed another metal structure that could be an "S", on it's side on but could also be a, "U", and an, "N", joined together, so that becomes the "U-ens", and by extension becomes the name of the half pipe in front. EG: "I'm going to practice grinding U-ens" The 9 stairs can be, "the cascade", and the 6 stairs, "The little cascade" and the larger steps next to the 9 stairs can be, "the giant's staircase" or, "giant's" for short. The other metal structure near the bowls that looks like two L's welded together look like the metal corner protectors of old fashioned suitcases, so that structure can be, "The suitcase", or, "the corner", or what was always on corners but a shop, so more obscurely could be called, the "shops". So if you want to skate the bowls you say, "I'm going to the big/little suitcase/corner/shops", and by extension people know which bowl you'll be skating. Any round rails could be called, "pipelines" 1,2,3 etc because the rails were probably meant to be water pipes and any square rail can be called, "sections", 1,2,3 etc. Why sections? Because the technical name for square tubing is, "Square Hollow Section", or, abbreviated to, "SHS" ...and the pyramid can be ironically called, "Khufu". Pronounced, "Coo Foo". Which is the name of the largest pyramid in Egypt....gives the young ones a history lesson as well. Then when you crash on the pyramid, you've done a SNUFU. So when limping back to your mates after taking a fall on the pyramid and they're asking what happened, you can say, "I had a SNUFU on Khufu", or more politely, "I got Khufued", which is probably preferable as you always want to keep your language G rated at the skate park because there's young kids around.

Mate you got the costing for the skatepark wrong. Stage one is being funded by a state government grant of $4.75 million, from the NSW Public Spaces Legacy Program, and $370,000 from the council. Ms Petinos said the state government would provide further funding of nearly $3 million for stage two of the Seymour Shaw Park masterplan for new sports fields and amenities.

I'm not hockey'ing on a soccer field right?
