Hi All,
Im hoping a few of you may be able to offer up on some advice on where to skate in london, preferably indoors, and also (please dont laugh) if anyone does skating lessons? I know its up to me to learn and practise, but im more of a team player...
thanks

You only need to make one thread.
Xbox or whatever the park's called does lessons for beginners. I think it's just little kids.. Dunno how old you are..
Wesborne grove or something I think the nearest stop is.
And phil got here first with far better info..

i dont know how old you are but if you go to school you could get your school to make a skateing club like my school and ther should be a pro teaching you
if not you get one on one teaching
try this site out

Skate Plaza is under-18 only.
Bay66 is the Xbox/Playstation Skatepark under the Westway already mentioned and suggested.
Southbank is under cover, but tiny (when i went on a Sunday evening it was quiet - about 15 people there tops - but i imagine it'd be very crowded alot of the time).
Bay66 is definitely the best bet, as it's big, under cover, and does have beginners lessons.
I wish there were other options too, but none that i know of. With the weather getting better generally, might be best to just try for Superstore/Supermarket carparks in the evening.

keep an eye open for any 'car park' meets that Claire organizes.... none of us that go are experts and we generally just enjoy a mellow roll-round. you're welcome to come along and enjoy the vibe.
