Welcome to our review of the Springfield Skate Park. This park offers a variety of obstacles for riders of all skill levels — the full video tour is above.
Ledges for days
The flat ledge is a great obstacle for beginners, as it is low in height and long in length, making it easy to ride on. It has a wide coping, which allows for a variety of grinds without grinding against the concrete.
The up-flat-down ledge is another obstacle that is perfect for riders of all skill levels. It has a similar coping to the flat ledge, which makes it great for all types of grinds, and the bank on either side allows for a unique riding experience — ride the bank to the flat, or grind straight from the bottom up-and-flat and down.
Quarters, rails and the box jump
The main quarter pipe section is a great place to practice fly outs and airs, while the pocketed quarter lets riders grind around the pocket and land into the bank. The smaller quarter pipe is long and perfect for learning new tricks.
The long curved ledge and DIY-looking flat rail both provide a fun challenge, and the main flat bar — a wide square rail — is low in height, which makes it really good for beginners (just a bit chunked up from years of grinds). The sub-box on top of the bank lets you ride out of the bank, grind it, and jump back in.
The big bowl and half-pipe is steep and challenging, making it hard to do anything significant. The down rail is another wide square rail that leads riders down into the main bank section, and the centre of the park has a unique box jump with a pocketed quarter on both sides.

Springfield Skatepark is referred to by Ipswich City Council as Bob Gibbs Park — you can see council information here detailing the rugby fields, playgrounds and fitness equipment around the park. While reviewing skateparks we’re also testing the parts we sell — our Buyers Guide to Scooter Decks is a good place to start, and we offer professional scooter lessons through our sibling company rideFSA.
