i can remember when Upper Hutts Skatepark was not infested with 13 year old Britney Clones and the ramps where made of Wood, there used to be a "U" ramp that Frequently got vandalised and eventually a hole was punched thru the ramp and it was too dangerous to use after a while. Even before the ramp was made we all used to congregate down Woolworths and Warehouse Carpark and occasionally "The reds" across the road from Noel Leming - ahh those where the days.
anyhoo the Maidstone Max skatepark seems much better than the old one but its located in a run down and fairly anarchic area despite a step up in Police Patrols in the zone
