Edinburgh Gardens Redux - Fitzroy North

Edinburgh Gardens was one of the first court reviews by Asphalt All-Stars, that was back in February of 2011. Back then we gave the court 3 backboard slaps, but a recent adventure to the park has revealed that the local council had been busy!

Full court, in hipster paradise.

4.5 backboard slaps.

Fresh court!

Pros:
Fresh full court, full FIBA markings, flattest surface in Melbourne, nets at both ends. It's right near the toilets and in the middle of the park so there's lots to do. Being in Fitzroy North there are hundreds of bars, pubs and cafes to explore pre and post game.

Cons:
It's a concrete court, and a super smooth court that felt really slippery. Hopefully with a bit of wear it will get a bit grippier. Other than that it is pretty impossible to fault.

Preferred game: 5 on 5 half court. That surface could be a knee and shin killer if you had to run the full length of the court.
