the tyler skatepark pour At noon on Tuesday, two trucks of concrete arrived at the public skatepark being constructed by Grindline in Round Rock. The crew of 8 shot most of the bowl’s deep end with somewhere between 16 and 20 yards of crete. No photos as of yet, but the people I talked to said the pour went well. The schedule is to keep pouring each day for the rest of this week.

I’ve posted some photos of the progress up in Tyler by Dave Reynolds. It’s more done than not, but a lot is left to do. I skated the new bowl, which is a good layout. The rain only damaged part of the finish on one wall so far as I could tell.

If you want to voice your opinion on this topic, please write to the Houston Channel 11 news, because it will be more effective than posting a comment on an obscure Austin skateboarding site that is only read by former members of the illuminati. Here’s a web-version of their news story.

NOTE: The photos on this story are from the Tyler construction project, not the Round Rock project.
