Essen Skate Factory on Ebay!
The Essen Skatepart Skatefactory is on sale on ebay! This is the park where Brian Aragon and Chris Haffey launched the Beat That series, where skaters tried to match previous tricks written on the curb and write their own.
The auction of the park will close in 3 hours at the moment i’m writing this news, and the price reached 15 euros for the moment. Here are some details (my german translation skills are not so good).
The park was built 10 years ago, some of the modules were buillt recently, here is what the auction includes :
- Halfpipe
- Mini-Rampe
- Mini-Rampe with a Spine
- Small Mini-Rampe
- more Box
- Funbox (built in 2005)
- Small Rails
The park actually worth between 20k and 25k euros. Check the auction on ebay. If ebay removed the page, check the details here (in german).

What?!
This skatepark has dope ramps and ledges if there is anybody who can manage to buy them this would be awesome. I would buy them for sure but you have to transport them until the 28th of december and that is not enough time to manage this! I hope the bigger german shops like grindhouse or ignition will do something about that!
In my opinon the ramps are worth much more then 25000€ Everybody who wants to build a skatepark would be lucky to get the ramps cheap like that!

It’s not about the price you pay for it. It’s about the transport. I don’t think a half pipe is that easy to get from a place to another…

yes, transportation is expensive as shit… but if u can pay 15 euros u can take grind boxes, some ramps etc… take coping from vert… its worht more than 15 euros itself :D

thats crazy
if only they’d put it on earlier, I’m sure grindhouse/ignition would’ve had a say in this
hopefully another ramps will actually be used in another park, not just scrapped
