Ritchie Chapman and a half dozen of his friends just couldn‘t wait to try out Marina Park‘s new BMX and skateboard plaza. Chapman, 29, has been skateboarding since he was nine years old. He and other skaters spent nearly two days shovelling and clearing the snow off the skate park to get it ready for use. “It‘s just something that we do,” said fellow skateboarder Darren Vaillant, 29.
