New Indoor Park Opening in Rochester...
I've been watching the progress of this place on facebook, and it's starting to come together. Unfortunately it won't be opening until it's warm again, but should be pretty freakin sweet once next winter comes around. It's going to be called the Rochester Action Sports Park (RASP).
A couple of previews:
I don't quite understand the mini ramp, but whatever. It'll be fun, I'm sure.
do want, that looks like a biker park, and therefore, really fucking fun

Word.
cant wait to shred that joint
i was just talking to some one about this. im def stoked for it to open. looks pretty good but id like to see more boxes/rails.
any idea on a time frame ? as early as july or maybe later like september october?
I think I was hearing May, but that might be wrong. Definitely by next winter, which is all I care about.
This is great news! I'm going to be in Rochester attending RIT next year so it's gona be awesome having an indoor park for the winter.
that mini reminds me of the W ramp at Eisenbergs which is indeed awesome
I would have a hard time calling the Eisenbergs mini awesome, complicated minis look like fun, but I always find myself just wanting a plain 6ft thats at least wide enough to carve into a good hit on the coping.Originally Posted by formerly galenaskater
As far as this park goes, I'm skeptical of its success, looks like overbuilding, which was a problem with our last park, but our last park was run horribly. I hope this one makes it, just trying not to get too excited about it until its survived a little while. Should be good for the scene which is never bad.
I went there the other day, there is a super wide quarter pipe next to the mini ramp, it will be really fun for long coping grinds. It also will have a 21 foot tall wall ride with a fly box next to a wall for wall rides (the wall is in the left), which will be really fun for sure. I talked to the main builder and it seems he is open to suggestions for what else to build, their is no blue print for the park besides a vague one. I'm going to try to convince him to build a park that is in everyones favor, including rollerbladers. Wish me luck!
Down ledges and a bauer box/fly box rail.
......wow
that doesn't sounds promising, although stuff so far seems laid out well enough
whatever you suggest, keep it simple
maybe some sort of bank to ledge, everyone loves a bank to ledge...bank to ledge!
Small ramps/boxes that can be moved around, probably not important at this point in building, but something to think about so that extra stuff that people only skate every once and awhile doesn't get built just to look fancy
I want a 15ft tall drop ledge with spikes on one side that leads straight into a wall.
oh yeah and a foam pit.... make that multiple foam pits.
oh yeah
I am going to go to NY just to F that park in the A
looks sickkkk as hell...ill come up to that park next winter for sure...mini ramp looks kinda wierd with that transition box in the middle....but other than that it seems sick!

I am going to not get my hopes up... i feel like the first X-dreams cursed rochester seeing as every park in the area closed down within two years of it being open, and the second x-dreams wasn't exactly great which also went out of business... im sure it will be fun though no matter what.
Their is going to be a section of the park designated for this.
I'm going to fight for some long coping ledges, like an up across down setup, or down ledges, or an A ledge setup. Btw the designer/builder is the same one that helped design/build spinners and the last two x-dreams.
Hahaha
Yea its too bad, they should have just kept it the same height all the way across, would have been so epic
