Summary

Jack Plowman is the owner of The Asylum skatepark and, a guy who went all in to open his first park at just 22 years of age. I have huge respect for anybody who takes a risk and does something out of the ordinary so, I was stoked to head to the new Asylum facility just outside Nottinghamshire to find out more about his business and some of the challenges that come with running a skatepark. 

I hope everybody who listens grasps just how much of a passion project this is for both Jack, his family and friends. Its a remarkable story and one that probably doesn't get enough credit. After all, these facilities don't just build themselves...
