Groot Schijn Skatepark, located in Deurne, Antwerp, is one of Belgium's premier skateparks, known for its modern and challenging design. The park was designed and built by Team Pain, a renowned skatepark construction company. Notably, the park features the first concrete full pipe built by Team Pain, adding to its uniqueness. The design also includes a backyard pool replica with pool coping, a flow bowl, and a beginner bowl, offering something for skaters of all levels. The park's surface area of 10,800 square feet makes it a significant addition to Antwerp's urban landscape.
Groot Schijn Skatepark was part of the broader redevelopment of the Groot Schijn Park, a large recreational area in the Deurne district. The redevelopment began around 2013, with major constructions completed between 2018 and 2019. The skatepark itself became a part of this renewal project, funded and managed by the City of Antwerp as part of their efforts to enhance public recreational spaces. The city's commitment to providing facilities for active youth, including BMX riders, skateboarders, and rollerbladers, is reflected in the park’s high-quality design and amenities.
Beyond the skatepark, the Groot Schijn Park features a wide array of sports and recreational facilities, making it a hub for community activities. The surrounding area also includes green spaces, playgrounds, and walking trails, adding to the appeal of the park for families and sports enthusiasts alike. Since its construction, the park has become a popular spot, hosting skating events and competitions, further cementing its place in the skateboarding community.
Renovations and upgrades to the surrounding park infrastructure ensure that Groot Schijn remains a top destination for skaters and a key part of Antwerp's urban recreational offerings. The city's continuous investment in maintaining and improving the park is indicative of its dedication to providing inclusive and innovative public spaces.
