6 & 7 - Haywards Heath ramps and Burgess Hill skatepark


Winter skating - waiting for dry surfaces and dry long enough to dry out - you look outside - seems dry enough to go see - but there's still bad damp and mud slippy places to keep you on your guard or your arse depending on how you look at it.

The ramps were a little spongy and need some resurfacing but I went two days in a row and second time they were drier and faster, (despite colder day with bits of snow in the shadows of the ramp still), - coping a bit rusty too - so grippy enough to feel more comfortable but not the slightest chance of a 50-50, (on my re-learn list).


Headed on over to Burgess Hill on the way back - park designed around scooter's and BMX more than skating - tarmac and too much distance between over sized and narrow ramps - BUT fast low height metal mini, with a single panel extension  that I just about skated but very wet and very slippy - went back next day but as it was colder the metal had condensation on all the panels, I didn't even try given how slippy it was the day before - shame though. Some time soon I'll re visit and play properly.
