Call to ramp up facilities


Urban Skate Plaza in Ampang Park, the latest skatepark in Klang Valley, draws skaters of all ages.

The thrill of gliding over a metal bar. The deep satisfaction that comes from landing a stunt trick. The feel of wind through one’s hair. These are the sum of all joys for skateboarders and other roller sports enthusiasts.

For full-time skateboarding coach Alfian Fariady Bashir Ahmad, 45, the driving force behind this popular activity –apart from the adrenaline rush – is the camaraderie that comes with it.
