The Mercury Bay Skatepark Trust was established in May 2017 to drive and support the plans for a replacement to the existing skatepark.
Whitianga Skate park construction
To help make the skatepark project happen, the trust has received support and donations from local businesses and the Thames Coromandel District Council.

Design of Skate park at Taylors Mistake / Whakau Reserve
The design of the park is in three areas -
- A street drain run, with low and high obstacles
- An open flow section, incorporating some unique and challenging obstacles, that will range from beginner to intermediate riders
- A bowl section that will stand alone for intermediate to advanced riders, with quarter pipes
Please contact Chris if you would like contribute to the project or have any questions.
