Some more circle or flat bar rails. If quarter pipes are on the perimeter it will give the park more "flow" also stair sets and ledges asidethe stairs are essential. 14 Stair Sets, Ledges, and Pyramid Box 15 Rails 16 Multi‐level stairs, multi‐level steps with rails, fun boxes with rail ledges 17 Rails and Jumps 18 Banks, flat ledges, down ledges, flat rails, down rails, stairs, pole jams, euro gaps, fill in existing planter with concrete (take out trees) 7/17/2013 19 Features I'd like to see included in an expansion include: Pole Jam, wall ride, tight transitions with pole coping, rails, ledges and stairs 20 Stairs, rails, small transitions, Rock Features! 21 Street Plaza feature all the way 22 I'm not a big street skater, but with as many riders that the park has there is a need for expansion of the skate park 23 I think an expansion for current usersand furture users is a great idea for our community 24 More rails, and drop ins for speed 25 Stairs with ledges and rails 26 Rails , Stairs, and Pyramid 27 Boxes, Drop in ramps, rails ramps 28 Stairs with ledges and rails, and up and down ramp with rail 29 Multi‐level steps with Rails, and Pyramid box 30 Down rails, boxes, step‐ups, down ledges 31 Multi‐level steps and rails or banksand rail transitions to fun boxes with rails and ledges.

Not enough parks have this. 44 fly ramp, fun box, a few rails 45 a basic mini‐ramp, thats 6‐8ft tall and 100 feet long 46 Long round down rail and some jumps where you can actually get some air. 47 Pyramids, flat and convex, 48 I would like to see round rails that are at least 16 feet in length! I can't stress the length enough. While a skateboard is only 2 feet long, a rollerblader has a 4 foot stance . enjoyment out of the obstacle. BLADERS literally need something 2 times longer than a sk8 boarder to feel the same 49 stair set with handrail and ledge, pyramid, creative transition lines 50 Stairs, gaps, ledges 51 Unique street features that are also artisically pleasing, see Team Pain's website for skate plazas... 52 round rails, taller than 1.5', longer than 12'. 53 Circle Rails. 54 lots of concrete ledges and round handrails 55 Round practice rails parallel to the ground(roughly two feet off the ground), round handrails down banks & stairs of varying length and degrees (Edwards Skatepark has a great example), Ledges down stairs & straight out over stairs, a 'Fun Box', a 'beginner' area with smaller features (ramp and street features), symmetrical design so features can be utilized by both 'regular' and 'goofy' or 'right foot' and 'left foot' skaters. 56 Round skinny rails: flat, flat down, down flat down 57 hubba ledges, drop rails, circle hand rails 58 Round rails, boxes, interesting and creatively designed new features. There are endless possibilities given the current layout. A better launch from the mini bowl to the new section where the bbal quarts are currently located. ROUND RAILS. Consult with professionals who design parks for a living as they know just how much you can do with some open space. 59 a pole jam, pool‐like features with pool coping, some rails and stairs, jersey barriers 60 More tranny, jersey barrier and banks. Check out Fort Collins' north side park Rio Grande Skate Park Survey Questionnaire Results 3. Is the existing skate park adequate or would you like to see the ‘Clover Bowl’ or any other feature change and absorb new features? 7/19/2013 1 Yes 2 Clover bowl is too big 3 It's adequate in the fashion that it suits transitional skateboarding very well. At the time when it was built, it was phenomenal. The Clover bowl should remain as is. 4 Defiantly leave in 5 Just Leave it 6 Yes yes yes 7 Yes 8DO NOT TOUCH CLOVER BOWL! IT IS THE BEST FOR TEACHING BEGINNERS 9 Nope 10 Yes 11 No 12 Yes 13 Existing park needs nothing changed except filling in the existing planter box with concrete 14 Yes 15 The mini needs some filling in ‐ the middle ledges with trees should be filled in with cement to flatten the top so we can ride on top. 16 No 17 No 18 Make bigger for Bikes 19 Yes 20 Yes, I think the existing skate park is adequate 7/17/2013 21 Under no circumstances should the clover bowl be removed. It provides variety and opportunity for the advancement of skills and spreads out park users 22 I skate the angel bowl all of the time 23 Yes it is adequate 24 Leave the bowl!! Us old timers skate the bowl all of the time. We are usually unseen because we skate after work and when the kids are gone. 25 Maybe 26 Yes, absorb new features 27 Keep it 28 Yes it is adequate 29 Keep the Clover Bowl! 30 I would like to see it disappear 31 It is important to keep some vert. Just add "street skate" features 32 Keep the Clover Bowl! 33 I think it should stay 34 The clover bowls should stay 35 The Clover Bowl is good! 36 I like that bowl, but there could be for sure be better features. I think that should stay, and the basketball court should go . 37 It is fine as is 38 Make disappear 39 Yes, more features 40 It is helpful for learning to roll down ramps (Shallow pockets), so keep it 41 Clover bowl is cool but could be used more 42 I would like to see this disappear and absorb new features 43 Yes 44 New features 45 New features 46 No, Keep the clover bowl 47 No Online 48 The clover bowl should be repurposed for the street features 49 The clover bowl is a very well designed/constructed pool, and is an integral part of our park. It's already there‐no sense in removing it, that would be a huge loss. Also, it's not just for expert skaters...I'm no expert, but skate it frequently because I enjoy that style of skating 50 Meh 51 Keep the Clover Bowl! 52 Keep the Clover Bowl! 53 I'd enjoy seeing larger bowls 54 gone to absorb new features 55 yes, math the clover bowl, the whole park is bowls; Quarter pipe 6'‐9' into rails and pyramids and or hips 56 no, I would miss it. 57 take out the clover bowl 58 More street, fewer bowls should always be a rule 59 Get rid of clover bowl 60 absorb new features. 61 Disappear for street features. 62 New beginner friendly learning features would be much more useful, for instance a 'step‐up' quarter‐pipe, that raises a foot ever two to three feet in length so people can progress. Woodward East's 'Playground' has a great example. 63 keep clover bowl. its awesome 64 The clover bowl should remain! It is used and provide another dimension (depth) to the park. 65 Disappear and absorb new features. No one uses it because it is wack 66 the clover bowl is outdated and could use a new fresh design 67 NO. The existing skate park is not adequate and never has been. NOBODY uses the 'Clover Bowl.' Absolutely nobody. It is a relic by design standards and a useless waste of space. Sooo much more could be done with the space that it currently occupies. 68 The clover bowl is the only advanced terrain at the park and is a sought after feature. It definitely should be kept Rio Grande Skate Park Survey Questionnaire Results 4. Is the ‘Clover Bowl’ used by many people? 7/19/2013 1 Yes 2No 3 Not used by everyone. But good for teaching, and advanced vert skaters. 4No 5No 6 Yes 7 Yes 8 Yes 9 Yes, all levels especially beginners 10 Yes, and would be used more if bikes were allowed 11 No 12 Yes 13 No 14 Yes! Love it ‐ Great for learning 15 Yes 16 Only the gnarliest use it 17 Not really 18 Clover bowl is perfect! 7/17/2013 19 Yes, by beginners and those with advanced skills a like.

  • Skatepark Expansion Project What We Heard Report – February 2021
    Skatepark Expansion Project What We Heard Report – February 2021 Project Overview In 2020, the Golden Skateboard Association (GSA) secured funding through the Columbia Basin Trust’s Community Initiatives & Affected Areas Program for the Golden Skatepark Expansion Project. These funds were used to complete the conceptual skatepark and landscape design phase of the project. On February 2, 2021 Town Council voted unanimously to provide a support resolution that approves the land for a skatepark expansion using future grant applications to fund park improvements. For background information and detailed project information, view the Briefing Note here. The Town of Golden assisted the GSA to conduct a public engagement survey to collect feedback on the skatepark expansion concept plan as well as information about the current use of the park. Engagement Overview For this project, the Town and GSA took a ‘Consult’ based approach to public engagement. The IAP2 Public Participation Spectrum level defines ‘Consult’ level of engagement as a goal “to obtain public feedback on analysis, alternatives and/or decisions.” This includes a commitment to “inform, listen to and acknowledge concerns, aspirations, and provide feedback on how public input influenced decisions.” Public engagement took place from February 2 to 18, 2021 and worked to achieve the following objective: By Feb. 18, 2021 obtain input from 500 residents and skatepark users on the conceptual skatepark and landscape design for future phases of the project. The information collected is intended to help evaluate the proposed conceptual design, understand the use of the current park, and to inform future grant opportunities and planning for the area.

I Dedication I would like to dedicate my thesis to the family and friends who have supported me throughout the lifecycle of this project and who have journeyed with me from pillar to post, capturing my skatepark traces along the way. To my amazing wife Ally Drinkwater. How fortunate I am to share my life with you. Without your love and support, fierce intelligence and passion for travel, I would not have achieved half of what I have. To my children, Zahki, Evie and Esther. You have each quite literally grown up with this project, and I am so lucky that you each enjoy skateboarding! I love you all. To my friends who have travelled with me while conducting research: Mel, Jasper, Kyle, Wyan, Mackenzie, Georgia, Matt, Danny Boy, Liam and Ash. It was so fun! Greg Hughes and Leo Robba, you were both inspirational in demonstrating how to complete higher degree research. You showed me the way. Matthew Sullivan, I have relied on your critical eye many times, and I am indeed grateful for your input and guidance. Dan Collard, for your ongoing friendship and dedication to going for a roll.
