SOUTH ROW 2.0

Applied for the 2022 DIY Fund for resources and materials to update the existing plaza and provide a bigger safe space for newcomers, beginners and new generation of young skaters. They involved the local community for recommendations as to what they would like to see happen and encouraged the build to be entirely under the control of the local skaters. 

​

They used the fund to make a small round rail perfect for skaters of all abilities, buy the materials and equipment to build a bank-to-bank transfer to give the park more flow and towards painting the park to give it some well needed life and colour.

 

They gave a board to a local resident interested and eager to skate and plans for other locals in need with the final to be used as prizes for a skate jam.

​

In 2023 South Row are working towards building a top deck to the banks. Ultimately extending the parks area and provide more space to build new obstacles. CIA have been able to support this through the DIY Fund.
