Our Expansion Design!

In April and May 2007 HSPIG distributed design kits to skaters through Big Sky Board Sports, The Skate Shack, and at the skate park. Skaters submitted their ideas for new terrain that has been incorporated into an AutoCAD schematic & 3D rendering by MSU Architecture Student, Scott Deitle. This schematic design will be further developed by a design-build firm. Skate terrain will be appropriate to the varied ages and skill levels of those who skate.
