Ocean Terminal at Leith has become the first Scottish shopping centre to house an indoor urban skatepark. Transgression Park - run by the Scottish extreme sports company, EHX - is bringing the shopping centre alive with action as novices and enthusiasts alike practise skateboarding, rollerblading, BMX, break dancing and tricking.
Designed by Scotland's pro BMX rider, Dave Showery, the 9,000- sq ft facility incorporates street and ramp features for BMX, blades and skateboards as well as offering a shop and a tuckshop.
Centre manager Dennis Jones said: "Transgression Park is part of our strategy to create excitement and attract people down to the waterfront. This further underlines Ocean Terminal's reputation as not only a premium retail centre but as a vibrant leisure destination."
