RampAttack - Indoor Skate Park
Wednesday - 3:50pm
We have recently partnered up with the brand new indoor skate park - RampAttack! Located between Ipswich and Brisbane, you are bound to fall in love with this amazing park.
We understand how hard it can be to skate in Australia; battlling the harsh Summer sun, unpredictable rain, early sunsets and rough bitumen. Now all of our problems have been answered by the amazing team at RampAttack! Not only are we able to skate during any weather, but the wooden flooring is perfect to learn how to skate (and how to fall safely).
There is a nice variety of ramps, transitions, boxes and rails that are wonderful for all skill levels to learn on. RampAttack has recently opened up a mega foam pit and resi ramp - perfect for skaters who want to try big tricks and land safely without receiving a major injury. We are so excited for their mini bowl section, which will be opening at the end of 2023.

What kind of skates do I need to skate at the park?
For all of our classes, you are required to bring your own skates, helmet and safety gear. For those starting out, we also recommend a pair of padded shorts.
Quad skates and inline blades are both welcome and our coaches are skilled in teaching both.
For quads, a set of ‘grind blocks’ can be beneficial when learning how to drop in as they create more stability when standing on the coping. They are also very useful when learning how to stall but not necessary when you are first starting.
A set of wider trucks (the axle holding the wheels) can help you feel more stable when at high speeds; we use ‘Penny Trucks.’
For wheels, we recommend a set of small/hard wheels. Ideally 97A+ and between 54mm - 62mm. This will keep you skating fast and reduce the risk of your wheels getting caught mid-trick.
Our Designs
Did you know that all our shirts were designed and drawn by our Coach Layla?
As an aspiring artist, she finds great joy and fulfillment seeing our skaters getting around in the shirts she made! Her goal is to create unique and affordable skate shirts to be enjoyed by the greater skate community.
Her favourite design so far is the Skate Park Tee. If you look closely, the two figures are her and Coach Paige skating at their fave local, Leslie Skate Park.
Your support in purchasing a shirt is greatly appreciated. And the more shirts we sell, the more designs she can get started on!
