Skateparks, pumptracks, bowls and freestyle parks. Since 2018 we have guided local authorities from feasibility study to handover — without ever selling the concrete we specify.
Most players in this field build what they design: their recommendation is, by its very nature, steered towards their own catalogue.
Evolving Skatepark is an independent design consultancy. We have no equipment to shift. Our only job is to define the facility that genuinely suits your area, your budget and your riders — then to oversee its construction by the most suitable contractors on the market.
That independence has a concrete consequence. Where a builder can only offer what it manufactures — concrete, or modules — we can combine both on a single facility, and add pumptrack asphalt on top. The material follows the disciplines actually practised, never the other way round.
At Evolving Skatepark, each family of facility answers a different use, a different audience and a different budget. Choosing the right one from the outset avoids the classic pitfall of these projects: promising everyone something that ends up satisfying no one.
A ribbon of asphalt made of rollers and banked turns where you move without pedalling or pushing. It is our most accessible facility: you pick it up in a single session, at three years old or fifty.

Ledges, rails, stairs, banks: street furniture rethought to be ridden. It is the most technical facility, the one experienced riders ask for — and the one that ages best.
En savoir plus →
Continuous curves that flow into one another without pumping for speed. A bowl needs little ground, but a great deal of formwork skill: it is the facility where build quality shows immediately.

Modules and curves built for aerial tricks. BMX, inline and scooter find lines sized for them, which a street park alone cannot offer. This is where multi-discipline use is won or lost.

Bringing these families together on one site and designing the movement between them is what turns a sports facility into a place people live in. Evolving Skatepark has designed thirteen of them.
En savoir plus →Before founding Evolving Skatepark, Luc Bourdin spent nearly twenty years at the French Roller Sports and Skateboarding Federation, where he created the « Optima Skatepark » service, advised several hundred towns and designed more than 40 skateparks. The regulatory and standards work he carried out for the federation still frames how these facilities are sized today.
He is the one you will have on the phone: Luc is the direct contact for authorities and clubs, from the first conversation to handover. Alongside him, Alex Sioc'han leads technical design and site supervision, and Marc Charlot handles business development and marketing.

Concrete street parks, pumptracks, bowls, freestyle parks and full complexes: our projects span the whole country and every scale, from rural village to major city.
We cannot do everything, and we would rather say so. Instead of artificially widening our scope, we have formed a lasting partnership with Mobil'iKi, a practice of occupational therapists, to design tracks that are genuinely rideable.
Exclusive partnerAmong the very few occupational therapists specialising in the rideability of wheeled sports facilities. Assessment, inclusive design, use testing at handover.
With us, the occupational therapist does not review a drawing at the end of the process: he is there from the first sketch and rides on the earthworks. Radii, transitions, surfacing — none of it can be fixed once the concrete is poured.
Exclusive partnership on every public contract for an inclusive facility. Together we designed the first inclusive pumptrack in France, at Bois d'Arcy (78).
Bois d'Arcy (78) — a single track, ridden at the same time by bikes, scooters, handbikes and wheelchairs.

It is the only test that counts, and no model can take it for you.
“This project is not just a piece of sports infrastructure: it is a lever for inclusion, a tool for social change and a strong marker of the town's strategy.
From the outset we chose to go beyond the regulations. With the expertise of Mobil'iKi and Evolving Skatepark, we worked on real rideability for everyone, including riders in wheelchairs.
Inclusion is not a slogan: it is a political choice, an investment and a method.”

Types of facility, minimum areas, real budgets, design stages, pitfalls to avoid: our 2026 Guide to Urban Wheeled Sports gathers in 30 pages what we have learnt designing more than 50 facilities.
Free, no strings attached, and written for elected officials — not for engineers.
We answer a town launching its feasibility study just as readily as an authority still weighing up whether a facility makes sense at all. The first conversation costs nothing and often clears up a great deal.
