Nikki Chappell at the Jamie Clapp Memorial Skatepark in Emersons Green

We took an early jaunt over to the new 'Jamie Clapp Memorial Skatepark' in Emersons Green, South Gloucestershire (near Bristol). It's about half an hours drive from Newport just off the M32, head left straight off the M32 onto the ringroad until you get to the Emersons Green Retail Park, it's right by Sainsburys and Boots.

The weather forecast was rain at 11am. We got to the park about half ten and at 11 it absolutely chucked it down for about 5 mins of the heaviest rain shower I've experienced for a long time (why is the weather forecast only right when it's for bad weather?). Honesty butt they were like tuppences falling from the sky. The park was soaked.

Not defeated we popped into Sainbury's cafe for a cooked breakfast, half an hour later the park was dry again, SWEET!!!! Nikki managed to throw all of these tricks down in about half an hour before another torrential rain shower stopped play for the day. I liked the park, the local guys were nice and the street layout is super good fun. I did an ollie down the steps. SAFE!
