Halfpipe corner at the Area 51 skatepark in Göteborg

I got back just last Sunday from Malmö, Sweden which has the incredible Stapelbäddsparken concrete park and another park which is being built right now which was looking like a whole look of fun. While I was at the contest, I hooked up with Magnus Olsevik, a Swedish vert veteran from Gotheburg, while having fun in the parking lot and he was obviously in a better state of mind than I was as he got in contact with me after the contest, sending me two links to parks I had never heard of yet (well, okay, one is being built.

The first one is the Area 51 skatepark in Göteborg which is a skatepark, from what I can understand, which is underground! And this park has everything you need: street area, a large miniramp, a wooden pool and, believe it or not, a a large concrete halfpipe with a wooden corner!!! Definitely something out of the ordinary and a place to visit!

Another concrete park which is currently being built - by the looks of it the work just commenced - in Göteborg looks to become the next massive park Sweden receives. Yes, I am getting jealous about all of these parks!!!! And yes, it is true. This park is being built by the same guys who made the Stapelbäddsparken in Malmö! Check out the pic below and keep up to date about how it is coming along on the following sites:
