14. Figeac - France

Found a few French skateparks - in true style some I found only once on the way out of somewhere, (despite looking and sk8loc8 etc, and google maps best help), when it was too hot and the family were needing to float in a pool, (me too), so despite some 'oh how lucky is that there seems to be a skatepark over there' coincidences - this is the only one I truly skated.  I found a tiny one in Rodez but couldn't see how to get to it, and the main one in Bordeaux was right by one of the main roads along the river, with like 6 lanes of traffic alongside.  If time and patience had allowed it would have got onto the list but...


Anyhow  - Figeac - standard kind of set up, a range of quarters either edge with a range of fun boxes and rails in the middle.  Still I enjoyed saying 'oui' in a 'yeah' kind of way and hitting the tail in appreciation of some good skating - but most of the locals were just hanging out.. but they were chilled and friendly so all good
