The Jam That Never Was | Skateboarding Photo
On the 7th May, the second annual jam at Maverick’s Skatepark in Dorchester was due to happen.
Hundreds of eager shredders from all over the South had the date scribbled into their diaries (do people still do this?), and were properly keen to get some weekend action at this wonderfully smooth piece of ‘crete.

“As a Community Worker I have supported many projects with young people which involve skate facilities; the past three years with Dorchester. From the outset Maverick have shown a professionalism and passion which raised belief and inspired.
Quite simply Maverick do more than go the extra mile. Your team are all a credit to Maverick – they engaged well with the skatepark committee and potential users, attended meetings, and are regular users themselves, so they understand every little aspect of creating a tailor-made skatepark”

“The park itself is a complete work of art. It surpasses the build quality of any concrete park I’ve ever ridden. The copings are perfect all the way round, the transitions are perfect and the main thing you’ll notice is how proper the edges look, grass neatly lines up with the concrete all the way round. It’s a pleasure to be there”
