The inquiry from the township

Bunschoten, situated almost in the heart of the Netherlands, approached us to collaborate on revitalizing their outdated skate park. The location is centrally positioned and easily accessible by public transportation. By working together with the local skaters and the municipality to understand their desires, we were able to establish a contemporary facility. The pigment in the flooring creates a serene appearance and contrasts effectively with the obstacles, ensuring clear orientation.

The realization by Nine Yards

During the winter months, intensive efforts were made to bring this skate park to realization. To prevent frost damage to the concrete, as many obstacles as possible were prepared beforehand. Following that, on days with milder weather conditions, the concrete pours were executed. As a finishing touch, pigment was added to the concrete floor to give the skate park a distinctive appearance.
