Canadian/American Ramp Company and the "Skatepark has reached its end of life" claim
More and more, I'm seeing ~20-year-old modular (metal) CRC/ARC skateparks replaced and the town's quoting that the skatepark had reached its "end of life". Is this something the Canadian Ramp Company keeps track of and then hits up towns trying to fleece them for more money? Because almost all of these councils wouldn't have any clue how long a metal modular park should or shouldn't last.
In some of these cases, the ramps are messed up and need to be replaced, but there's cases where the ramps are totally fine and it kills me to see them go to the landfill. My local town won't build a better replacement when the Canadian Ramp Company comes to fleece them, so it worries me.
