Skateparks - Safety Requirements and Test Methods
Also Known As:
Skateparks that are public and made for the use of skateboards, roller skates, and BMX bikes must adhere to the DIN EN 14974 standard. Its main goal is to lay forth standards for safety and test procedures for these skateparks. The standard specifies how the equipment should be tested and marked, as well as what data the producer needs to provide. In order to guarantee the security of users and any other third parties, such as spectators, it also specifies rules for usage, inspection, and maintenance.
It is crucial to remember that this criterion does not apply to bike facilities consisting of dirt, gravel, or rock. Its application is restricted to skateparks built for BMX bikes, skateboards, and roller sports equipment, and it strives to safeguard users and bystanders from any potential risks associated with their use.
