Greensborough Skatepark is a compact Skatepark that does a lot with limited space. The park is located adjacent to the lovely Kalparrin Gardens, in Yando St off the Circuit near the Greensborough Mall. The park is quite unique as it’s built on a hill and gives off a concreted rice-terrace vibe. The only issue with this being that it limits flow and makes the park quite one-directional.
The park begins up the top with a square-ish and tight 6-7 ft bowl with an over vert corner extension with sloped coping.
Dropping down from the bowl into the street section is via either a bank, hubba, steep quarter, mini quarter to bank or down rail (over a bank / some nasty looking large stairs (BIG 6 stair equivalent). Don’t be stacking on the down rail if you like your teeth the way they are.
From here the park cascades down further via a down rail over bank, bank, solid euro gap to quarter, hump to quarter or a down rail over a steep 9 stair section.
From here you can drop back into the park via a series of banks and quarters, including one particularly steep quarter with ~2 ft of vert!
Bring a Sherpa and enjoy the hike back up from the bottom.
