Who are we?

We are fully skateboarder owned and operated. Motivated by an adoration for wheeled sports facilities and a desire to enhance the quality of skateable spaces in the Scotland and the UK.

As well as this we see the construction of these facilities as a chance to celebrate craftmanship and engage with communities.

Our team we have over 10 years of specialist experience within skatepark and pump track construction.

Our directors, two lifelong skateboarders,  

Ruari and Haden formed the company after being given the opportunity to  

extend an existing skatepark. They then welcomed Paul as the director of  

construction who is the owner of Bikescape Ltd, a specialist contractor in  

pump track construction. This allows us to pool resources and knowledge  

from two niche industries, creating a versatile team.

ROSS ROBERTSON

Design Consultant

Skateboarding taught Ross to read the built environment in motion— seeing lines, flow, texture. As an architectural technologist, that same lens drives his passion for design: how people move, adapt, and interact with space. Skating fuels Ross’ creativity, to imagine and create environments that invite movement, expression, and unexpected connection.
