A Swansea dad has created a skate park in his garden as he can't get to his usual spot.
Adam Williams, who owns Ramps Skatepark in Llanelli, has spent the last three weeks building a huge ramp in his back garden.
Much like countless other businesses across the country, the 29-year-old has been forced to temporarily close his skate park as a result of the coronavirus outbreak.
Despite not being able to get to the skate park, the dad-of-three has taken matters into his own hands and built a 30ft long half pipe in the garden of his Killay home.
"I've got a five-year-old son who is mad about riding and I'm an ex-professional mountain biker myself," Mr Williams said.
"I always dreamed of having a ramp in my garden so I did it as the skate park is closed at the moment and we don't know when it's reopening."
He added: "It's a traditional half pipe and is the same size ramp as we've got in the skate park.
"It's the ramp that teaches you the most skill at skate parks.
"It's about 30ft long and 6ft tall. It's taken three weeks for me to finish it. I had to do it all by hand.
"The ground work was the biggest problem. I had to cut down a lot of trees because the ramp has to be set up on level ground."
Mr Williams is also offering to build a ramp for anyone missing being able to visit the skate park during the lockdown.
He added: "The response I've had has been insane.
"I had about 28 messages within the first hour about building the ramps in people's gardens."
He said they were going to be starting one for James Jones the BMX rider who was meant to be going to the Olympics.
"Skate parks are closed but he still needs to train.
"My son Jaxon loves it. He is very happy about it. We have been riding on it together."
