Now that the Skateboards challenge is finished, you may want somewhere to use your new board -- hence, the Skatepark challenge.

Skatepark

---

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A skatepark is a purpose-built recreational environment made for skateboarding, BMX and aggressive inline skating. A skatepark may contain half-pipes, quarter pipes, spine transfers, handrails, funboxes, vert ramps, pyramids, banked ramps, full pipes, pools, bowls, snake runs stairsets, and any number of other objects.

For the purposes of this challenge you are to design a skatepark using the familiar apparatus from the above description and any unique ideas you come up with. If you participated in the Skateboards challenge, you may use your skateboard from that challenge in your finished skatepark.

Standard Participation Rules apply.

Note: Due to recent concerns, a new rule has been added. Starting from challenge #169 going forward, renders will no longer be permitted as part of a participants submission. This rule is intended to enforce the idea that this is a modeling challenge where not only is the presentation is important, so is the quality of the modeling and the uniqueness of the design. Please keep this in mind when voting for the winner.

Skateboard

---

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A skateboard is a type of sports equipment used primarily for the activity of skateboarding. It usually consists of a specially designed maplewood board combined with a polyurethane coating used for making smoother slides and stronger durability. 

A skateboard is propelled by pushing with one foot while the other remains on the board, or by pumping one's legs in structures such as a pool or half pipe. A skateboard can also be used by simply standing on the deck while on a downward slope and allowing gravity to propel the board and rider.

For the purpose of this challenge you are allowed to use your imagination and create a one-of-a-kind skateboard or model one from the real world.

Standard Participation Rules apply.

Note: Due to recent concerns, a new rule has been added. Starting from challenge #169 going forward, renders will no longer be permitted as part of a participants submission. This rule is intended to enforce the idea that this is a modeling challenge where not only is the presentation is important, so is the quality of the modeling and the uniqueness of the design. Please keep this in mind when voting for the winner.

SketchUp 3D Challenge #168 - Pogo Sticks

Derived from the idea of spring stilts, the Pogo Stick became a fun toy for getting around in the 1920's. They originally had a straight handle that ran the risk causing of chin injuries and were later improved with the now familiar handlebar design. Their popularity has come and gone over the years and lately their popularity has increased with the new fledgling sport of Extreme Pogo that utilizes modern gas piston and elastomer based sticks.

For this challenge, you are free to model an existing stick design or design one from your own imagination.  Don't be afraid to experiment with your design as there is a lot of room for creativity here.

Standard Participation Rules apply. Thanks to bridger for the challenge suggestion.

Before Valentine's Day, it's hard to escape the barrage of TV commercials and advertising on the web for jewelry and everything that goes with it. Jewels come in all shapes and sizes and made of precious and semi-precious stones. Most of the time they are set in precious metal settings forming all kinds of jewelry.

So, in this challenge you job is to incorporate jewels into jewelry or even loose jewels but keep in mind the theme of Valentine's Day and love.
