Ashton Gate

Skate Spot

The concourse of Ashton Gate Stadium, located in Bristol, England, is a unique and versatile spot that has gained attention among longboarders for its smooth surfaces and ample space. Known primarily as the home of Bristol City Football Club and the Bristol Bears Rugby team, the stadium’s concourse transforms into an unexpected haven for riders seeking an urban spot to practice and cruise.

What makes Ashton Gate’s concourse particularly appealing for longboarding is its well-maintained, flat concrete surface, which provides minimal resistance and a reliable grip. The open design offers plenty of room for beginners to practice basics like pushing, carving, and foot braking, while more advanced riders can experiment with freestyle tricks or slow-paced dancing routines. The wide pathways and slight gradients in some areas allow for creative movement without excessive speed, making it a safe and welcoming environment for all skill levels.
