theres a new indoor park being built in the isle of wight,the name of it is called (the drop) as it has a 12 foot quarter drop to a foam pit hense the name ,i was helping the owner out last week in marking it out plus i guess i will be roped in to marking the foamers out next week as i am a chippy and have worked on lots of radius bits in the past,there will be a big mini ramp section plus a street section but the park is only 4000 square feet so it might be a suck it and see at the beinging ,theres some plans if your search on isle of wight radio web site so take a peek,i am so gald i will have a place to ride without looking like a pidoe ive just spent a fortune on a new school ride as i want to ride again after more than 25 years cant wait and keep you informed on the progress.

its going to be in newport so pretty much near the centre of the island
shame it isnt nearer the coast as there are no train stations to newport from any of the portsmouth/southampton/lymington ferry/hovercraft terminals so u have to ride there from the ferry (no good if its raining) or take a car across which prices start at £55 for a return which isnt too bad if there are 4 of you

£55 sounds good to me if it's a good park!
