The mini ramp is nice with mellow transition and forgiving coping, but it is extremely narrow. So it looks like a good place for mini ramp beginners, but it's not imho ideal for learning basic slash grinds etc if you like to carve into it (because of the risk of carving out of it).
There are 2 vending machines nearby and SHOWERS (go downstairs, south-east, to OCBC Arena main entrance where there are toilets and changing rooms with SHOWERS .

How to Choose the Best Skateboarding Class for Your Child
- Coach experience: Check the instructor’s skateboarding background, child-teaching experience and relevant coaching or safety certifications before committing to lessons.
- Safety practices: Ask whether helmets and protective pads are compulsory and how coaches teach controlled falling, stopping and skatepark awareness.
- Starting level: Choose a programme that suits your child’s current ability, from tentative beginner to confident intermediate rider.
- Age suitability: Confirm that lesson length, instructions, equipment and activities suit your child’s age, coordination and attention span.
- Class size: Smaller groups usually allow more observation and correction while children learn balance, pushing, turning and stopping.
- Teaching approach: Look for patient instruction that breaks skills into manageable stages instead of rushing difficult tricks.
- Progress pathway: Ask how coaches assess readiness for ramps, bowls, transitions or technical tricks, and whether milestones are discussed.
- Practice environment: Consider surface condition, traffic separation, shelter, lighting and terrain suitability for your child’s lesson level.
- Equipment condition: Confirm whether families need a skateboard and protective gear, then check rental availability, sizing, condition and charges.
- Child confidence: A cautious or anxious child can benefit from private coaching, a trial lesson or a smaller group.
- Programme goals: Decide whether safe recreational riding, confidence, social learning, technical progression or competition preparation matters most.
- Supervision standards: Ask how instructors manage mixed abilities, falls, crowded skateparks, water breaks and movement between park features.
- Weather planning: Outdoor lessons can be affected by rain, so check shelter, cancellation, rescheduling and make-up arrangements.
- Schedule access: Compare lesson times, travelling distance, MRT access and the practicality of carrying boards and protective equipment.
- Trial options: A trial can show whether the coach’s communication, lesson pace and group setting suit your child.
- Fee details: Review session length, package validity, registration charges, equipment rental, refund terms and all quoted costs.
