What's up

SLOW SPACE | “An intuitive way of engaging with skateboarding." Bristol’s Cabot Circus shopping centre brought back their ‘Level 7’ car park pop-up skatepark for a third year in a row, and alongside this free-to-use skateable space featured ’Slow Space’ in collaboration with Subway UK, CANVAS Skateparks & Spaces, and Campus Skateboarding, this was able to cater more directly to both young and beginner skateboarders alike. Through a skateable feature ‘co-design’ workshop held at May Park Primary School, we uncovered themes that are preferable to beginners and young people, including; a hippy jump, humps, kickers, and ramps. CANVAS Spaces then took the drawings made by these young people, built and installed them at Level 7, bringing to life Bristol’s first ever youth-designed skateable space. The features that made up the ‘Slow Space’ had one more journey to undertake to find their permanent home; the playground of the school in which they were designed. They will be there for all the students to enjoy and the after-school skateboarding club will continue to run and thrive by these additional obstacles, encouraging development & growth. The future of skateboarding and education looks bright! Produced by Clockwise Film @skateboardgb https://skateboardgb.org
