Do I need to book before I visit?
We would highly recommend booking before you visit. We are currently operating at a reduced capacity due to COVID-19 which means our sessions are getting booked up very quickly. And if its your first time, you will need to complete our online waiver, which will save you time when you arrive.
Can I check availability/how busy a session is online?
Yes! If you click 'Book Session' then select which venue and session you want to attend you will get an option of available times (session dependant) Next to the session time is the number of available spaces for that session, the lower the number, the busier the session.
Are spectators allowed in the skatepark?
During our Junior Sessions, Junior Mash Up, Junior and Toddler Takeover Parents & Guardians are allowed in the skatepark to support their children but cannot take part in the activity. On all other session spectators are not allowed into the skatepark.
During Tuition sessions we have found through experience that our tuition runs more smoothly when there are no spectators. Therefore please be aware that we may ask parents and or carers along with other spectators to leave the skatepark during tuition
Can I book my 4 year old in for tuition?
We require all participants to be familiar with a learning environment and be comfortable with taking instruction from our skate coaches without their parent/carer present.
