Wednesday, 13 November 2024

On November 16 (Saturday) in Ruse, with an attractive program, including demonstrations and a concert, the new skate park will be officially opened. The event will start at 2:30 p.m. in the Youth Park in the presence of the Mayor of Ruse Pencho Milkov and the Chairman of the Bulgarian Skateboard Federation Boris Atanasov.

Attendees will have the opportunity to see spectacular demonstrations of some of the best skaters, bladers, bikers and scooter riders in our country. A special participation will be taken by the famous hip-hop artists Secta and Homelesz, who will add unique energy with their underground performances. The host of the event will be the popular influencer Tony Enchev.

The new playground provides excellent conditions for practicing skateboarding, aggressive skating, BMX, bikes and scooters. The skate part amounts to 960 sq. m. meters and it includes two main sections - bowl and street (with elements of the urban environment). The specialized pavement implies good speed when riding and performing more technical tricks, at the same time, it does not allow vibration and noise. A variety of facilities are available, including ramps, rails and trick courts, which allow young athletes to develop skills, and the artistic vision of the skate park turns the sports space into a work of art. According to the contractor company - "Geramis International", which designed and built skateparks in Sofia, Burgas, Dobrich, Samokov and other cities, Ruse is the first city in the country with a concrete skate park and an asphalt pump track.

An essential element of the implementation of the site is the preservation of the existing vegetation, and the vision of the facility is enriched with the creative transformation of two withered trees, which, instead of being removed, are transformed into art installations using the carving technique. In addition, around the figure of the emblematic bear for the people of Ruse are formed decorative sculptures of various animals. 

The facility also has an irrigation system that will ensure the sustainability of the green areas.

The skate park meets all European standards and the plans of the municipality are for Ruse to host both regional, national and European competitions.
