who are world skate design reviewers?
World Skate Design Reviewer is the role of invited experts as part of the international commission of World Skate NEXT GENERATION SKATE FACILITIES, directly involved in the assessment of projects of skate parks and action arenas, and having the right to issue a certificate on behalf of World Skate that that the project fully complies with its Skatepark Facility Certification Rules.
Skatepark Facility Certification Rules are especially set up to ensure the best quality in design and construction of skatepark facilities. These rules are developed for any designer or skatepark builder to understand and produce designs and construct skateparks by the highest quality standards. A special commission made up of international top designers and constructors, under the supervision of World Skate, will test any design submitted to World Skate for approval. Once the design is approved, the quality of the construction is subsequently tested and as-sessed.
When the design and the construction are approved by the World Skate Commission and by the Certification Board, a skatepark is granted the relevant certification.
This process guarantees that skateparks are developed by the highest "NEXT GENERATION SKATE FACILITIES" standards.
