Aurora Family Leisure Complex

I'm extremely critical of this park as I've been to several of this companies projects and they almost always find a way to mess something up. I'm not going to name them here but Google it if you're
curious (It's Hardcore. F Hardcore. Everything they touch gets f'd up.)

UPDATE - The AFLC Skatepark will be demolished and be rebuilt. A review in 2018 found significant issues with parks construction that warrant demolition. Why the City waited 4 years to review an obviously flawed park and allowed the 2 year warranty on the park to lapse is beyond me. Hopefully the new build fixes the issues and re-builds some of the fun features.

The Good.

 
 Large, smooth concrete park with good flow.

 Spread out obstacles to allow for multiple users of the park.

 Smooth bowl with extention and...

nice transfer into the park.

 Mini-bowl.

Neat half-coin gap.

The Bad

 The bowl, which is brand new, has several seeping cracks. The water on this smooth concrete made the surface slippery and dangerous.

The Ridicu-hip and more drainage issues.

This hip is in such a weird spot it either shoots users into the rock wall or it has to be hit after jumping a large gap.

The retaining wall allows run-off to seep onto the park and the closest drain is at the other end of this quarter pipe.

Water drains in front of the whole quarter and creates a mini-creek.

Water doesn't even drain into the sewer.

It just puddles into the mud.

 Water running onto the park brings dirt and rocks with it. These stairs are also on a weird angle.

All the planter gaps are filled with mulch, which also makes its way onto the park.  Some DIY crete has been added so this hubba can be hit from both sides.  That's some short sighted design work.

There it is, the good and the bad. The 267th park I've been to. I had fun. I'dd go again but I hope the city fixes the landscaping and drainage problems.
