Where to skate and practice in East London?
DULWICH PARK
Matt is now taking bookings for private sessions in Greenwich Park, Dulwich park, Crystal Palace park and Battersea: please email: matt@skatefresh.com
GREENWICH PARK :With by far the best view of London, Greenwich Park resides on the Thames, overlooking our beautiful Capital. With loads of space on the park roads to skate, good travel connections and loads of other stuff to do, it represents a fabulous venue for a day out on your skates. Need a map?
Greenwich Park represents by far the most tranquil place to skate and develop your inline skating skills. Once you’re able to stop with confidence, skating on the designated park roads is a brilliant place to crack the next amazing move or indeed just have a roll around and enjoy the sights. Skatefresh actively promotes skating safely and under control, so please wear safety protection whilst you’re skating and treat other park users with respect and consideration… Happy skating :)

SURREY QUAYS / ROTHERHITHE: Surrey Quays is the home to one of the best sports stores in London, Decathlon, who offer very reasonably priced skates and protective gear as well as loads of other stuff for all you sporty types. The area surrounding decathlon, whilst urban and not as pretty as Greenwich Park, does present good opportunities to the more advanced skater for venues to practice street skills and road understanding, in a safer less busy environment.
