School Summer Break

After a weekend weather washout the skatepark was back to busyness. A majority in favour of scooters today with a few BMX, inline and skateboard. What a great way to pass some holiday time; exercise, fun and Pot Noodle.

Skatepark Evening Session

Plenty of sun and air at The Front this evening. Not too busy either.

The Skate Park

I’ve never done any BMX style or Skate/Skateboard so I was interested to get going with Park BMX (with a camera!), even more so as I had been welcomed into The Front, Weymouth’s Community Skatepark, an hour before the doors opened to the general public.

The site on which stands The Front used to be a petrol station. Following its closure, a campaign was organised by local parents and youngsters for a skate park to take its place. The group presented a 5,000+ signature petition to Weymouth & Portland Borough Council, asking for help to provide a much needed sports facility. Three years later The Council agreed to donate the disused petrol station site on the seafront, on condition the group raise the necessary funds to develop it as a community skate park.

The funds were duly raised and The Front opened in July 2001. Yesterday, when I first stepped through the door into the club area for introductions, it already felt like a happy place, even before noticing the sign confirming my suspicion.

One of the longer standing members had agreed to ride the ramps for me today. He had been riding BMX for 9 years and mentioned that The Front was more than a skate park, there was also a strong social aspect to it, particularly for the older guys and girls. Some members have worked hard to be sponsored and represent The Club and the brand. They also give skills guidance to the youngsters if required. It all adds to the family feeling.

Since opening 15 years ago, The Front has gone from strength to strength. By the time I left, just after official opening time, the car park was full and The Club bar area was buzzing. I think I shall apply to become a member!
