Bollington: Design Ideas needed

We have an inital meeting with a designer next week lunchtime - Thursday 5th.... So we need some ideas of what to suggest as a starting point. Do you have any favourite parks? or favourite features you've ridden? if so mail us the images, or details, or use the comments section below.
So far the wish list is good roll in with medium and big jump boxes, perhaps leading in to a tranny to vert for the return. Plus a good miniramp, maybe a small kidney bowl and a street section. But what could make the park are some unique ideas thought up by us local riders, so get you thinking caps on!

One thing ive always wanted to skate, is a drainage ditch styled snakerun, you see em a lot in american skate vids, mebbe instead of another bowl as macc and poynton are supposed to be getting you could try this out, drainage ditch styled banks as a small snakerun with a sortof half bowl at the end allowing you to carve around and cruise back up the snakerun, another thing would be to have some ledges dotted around the top of the snakerun so you can basically cruise up, grind, then get back into the run and continue, would make for some creative skating. As for jump boxes, go check out the ones at high lanes little council jobbie, they are a good fun height, specially for beginners, so you could make one the size of the slightly bigger one at that park and mebbe have another thats slightly bigger possibly even one after the other for small air, cruise along to a bigger air.
