A30 Rockmaster on the Job with California Skateparks
The Skatepark Association of the United States of America estimates that
there are approximately 1000 skateparks in the United States today.
According to Heidi Lemmon of the SPAUSA, " In 1996 we had a list of over 200 US Skate Parks.
Parks are being built so fast that we are having a difficult time tracking them.
Churches, PAL, and schools throughout the nation are adding to their youth programs."
Ralph's Concrete Pumping of San Bernardino, CA, is seen here pumping a retaining wall
at the Monrovia Skatepark with REED's new A30 Rockmaster Concrete Pump.
This particular 30 yard pour specified a "...4" system or greater, or boom pump..." because the mix contained 1359 lbs of 1" crushed rock.
Ralph felt confident that the A30 Rockmaster's 5"x5" "S-Tube" could pump this rocky mix through 150' of 3" hose.
"I was very impressed with the performance of the A30. Not only can I pump any kind of pea rock mix,
I can pump "big rock" mixes and
shotcrete as well. This pump is perfect for a new pumper or someone looking to move up from a ball-valve pump" said Ralph.
California Skateparks of Upland, CA, has been touted as
"one of the best skate park builders in the world" by the Editor of Juice Magazine.
According to California Skateparks,
"The design is a creative and essential part of building a skate park,
but without the artistry of the construction, the vision of the design cannot be realized.
At CA Skateparks we provide the link between the imagination of skaters and the finishing of concrete."
California Skateparks has already built 26 skateparks and has 10 more parks in process. One of those new
parks is in Monrovia, CA, near Pasadena.
