I know what you mean, lol! Although everyone so far but you has told me its too hard, I only added skill in the name because its leveled.
Design: It has a lot better design than the other skate park maps in that it actually has a reason to play the map rather than just spawnkill.
Gameplay: I can't say much for the gameplay as I played it with like, 3 people, but from what I saw it seemed to suffer from some of the things that other recent skill "surf" (if you can call this that, which I honestly disagree with because 80% of the map isn't surf) maps get repetitive fast.
Looks: Lookswise..it's terrible to be honest. There's hardly any detail, the lighting is bland, the texturing is very bland..it just looks like crap, just like the other skate park maps. Just because it's based on it doesn't mean it has to look terrible because the prior one did too.

I like the overall design of this map.
Now we finally have a surf_skate_park that is actually fun to play and involves a bit of skill.
The jail has a good layout that fits the map. but I didn't like the teleporters at the side, I'd prefer being teleported into the right direction.
Level 1
Nice and simple design, but I didn't like the waves at the beginning.
Level 2
Level two took me a few minutes to get through but is nicely made and fun to play.
Unfortunately it was quite short though.
Level 3
Level three was quite easy in my opinion, but is also very nicely made.
Jail
In the jail I found a spot on the halfpipe where you could just sit.
Picture
included
I also notice the textures not lining up.
To allign the texture on the steep side go into the texture application tool go to the top right and turn it 90 degrees.
Overall this is a great map and I would love to see more like this.
Yeah, when I first made the jail I was surprised to have been challenged because if you ever got stuck in the wrong direction you would just get stuck on a slope and not be able to switch sides. Then I figured out in all the good half pipes you can surf on the sides. So I thought, why not just leave the curved surf able parts alone and make the rest a conveyor? That seemed to work the best. You are just standing on the corning of the last non surf able arch piece so your kind of in a happy medium between surf and conveyor flat pieces.
Also, did you like the winner reward system? If you have not been on a server to see someone beat the map, read the map description and tell me what you think.
