BMX bros and SourceBMX owners, Marc and Rich Moore, have followed every BMXer’s dream and built their own skatepark. In true SourceBMX style they went all out and constructed a mammoth facility in one of the most ambitious locations ever seen. Located underneath Hastings’ seafront, in a former 1870s Turkish bath, this is basically the raddest episode of Grand Designs that never happened. The place is mental!

Marc Moore warned me; ‘be careful what you wish for’ because this was no easy feat, it took a lot of hard work and dedication from a lot of people, but it is now up to you to reap the rewards, so make sure you check it out – it’s the most epic subterranean skatepark this side of your wildest imagination. Hastings is officially back on the map as the BMX capital of the UK.
