Skatepark Obsession

Original Idea

Ever since I heard about the Design Input Meeting about the upcoming Norfolk Skatepark I've been obsessively drawing skatepark layouts and obstacles. I gave a bunch of drawings to the guys at the meeting last Saturday then came up with a new concept after talking with them about the site requirements and what not. Hopefully some of these ideas get incorperated into the final design.

I'm super psyched on this pyramid idea. I think only a model would truely be able ot represent it effectivly, but I'm sure you get the idea.
