Blackburn

Behind Lois Kemp Arena
@ 190 Glen Park Dr

A sad mini version of Trillium with a DIY curb and barrier QP.








Manny Pad right into a barrier.


Expanding foam as a fix. That's a first...and hopefully last.

Why is such a crappy park named after an awesome and influential Canadian Skateboarding Icon?

Because it's getting a fresh update!

For now, Gnorman does not approve.  Banks supported on barriers. The weirdest quarter pipes I've ever seen.  Concrete stairs and ledges.  A weird bridge thingy manny pad.
I had to hit V1.0 to make V2.0 even more of a contrast.

710 Mikinak Rd

A 'V' shaped pre-fab park. Not a terrible layout. Typical pre-fab issues like noise, low coping and the rail that's higher than it should be.
The Willy Santos DIY Curb Spine is actually fun. 


Classic CRC CBD (coping below deck)

Concrete support at the transitions.

This must be a 'Gen 2' version of the Willy Santos DIY Spine as the one on the website appears taller with a different curb.

Nearly died on this thing before the camera was rolling.lol



As much as I don't like most of crc's products, I wouldn't kick this one out of bed for farting.



I like this textured threshold between the walking path and the skatepark.

Greenboro

Greenboro

on Conroy Rd north of Johnston Rd
warning - There's no parking here. You can try the railway access or the abandoned go-kart track across the street. I parked nearby in front on the Saudi Arabian Cultural Bureau. Lots of cameras around in case someone dings your ride.😛






Nothing like a big drop Hubba to make yer hair stand up.



Bridlewood

@ Eve James Memorial Community Centre
65 Stonehaven Rd
A bunch of CRC SOLO ramps (must've been on sale back in the day, Ottawa's crawling with them).
No Ledges.
No Flat Bar.
I can't recommend even coming here to skateboard.








Rouncey

Rouncey Park on Rouncey Rd
Ottawa, ON
Short a ledge. I think these ramps have been internally insulated for decreased noise.






Nearby toboggan/bmx hill

This hurt more than it looks like. I missed a feeble stall, got squirrelly and ended up sliding out and my board kinda crushed my hand. Off camera of course.
