| "...thanks to Jim Barnum....the park is a world class attraction. The new addition is made up of various quarter pipes, banks & pyramids....the newer park...is nothing short of a park rat's dream....hosts several competitions over the summer & is always packed with skaters from around the world." | |||

| “As a skateboarder, Jim offers the intimate knowledge of the sport that is vital to the design process. His technical knowledge, computer aided design / drafting ability, and his effective communication skills have enabled the design and implementation processes.” | |||

| "When I arrived, I felt like I was standing next to the pyramids of Egypt. I had a grin from ear to ear! This park has everything...an escalator, bowled corners, fun boxes, ledges, a spine with an elbow and a tear drop, & coping on everything. Not to mention the bowl which is connected by a paved path with a banked turn & pump bumps which we nick-named the "Turkey Shoot"! With the speeds involved, it could get pretty crazy. Overall, this is the best park hands down & has ruined every other park in the lower mainland for me. Extra special thanks to Jim Barnum for constructing this paradise. I can't wait to see what's next!" | |||
