D.I.Y. Skateboarding
Based on free entrance, cheap beer, good music bands and huge skateboard sessions, this story had started from nothing. No money to make the stage, no wood to build the skatepark, the bands were plugged on an old tractor power take-off and the park was built out of pallets and plywood found here and there, sometimes during the night when everybody was asleep! These are just a few examples of what DIY means!

The Beaulieu DIY is an abandonned skatepark built in in 1998 by a group of young dudes from Beaulieu and town council workers in part of an old quarry given to them by the mayor.
