[@EliFleming]

Context is always key. When a spot is a legitimate “skatepark” there is the expectation that the design will facilitate, rather than hinder skating. But when a spot is “natural,” the expectation is less and more leeway is given judging suitability. In the context of a skatepark, this spot is awful but if it were found in the middle of an industrial park, it’d be accepted as weird and challenging.

I have pictures of skating this in 1990 when I visited in the Navy. Saw it from the freeway and made it a mission to find it. So, where you see the "road", it used to be semi-decent blacktop but has since worn away. Only the concrete pad is left. It was terrible, and so was the wooden skatepark at the AFB down the road.

It is, and the vert is so you can do stalls on a tiny quarter

I was thinking the exact same thing. Definitely looks like a BMX suited ramp.

[@katosimon8603]

Your friend is a genius

[@williamz7011]

Been riding bmx for 28 years now, and I will say with utmost confidence that this ramp would be terrible for pretty much any school of bmx. Short steep ramps are the worst on a bike. And for the guy who said it's for stalls, there's only a couple stalls where steeper is better, and absolutely no one would build a ramp just for icepicks/toothpicks. This thing's transition is a mess when you look at it from the side. Who's this actually made for? Whoever wants to ride a wonky, odd quarter I suppose. I just think it was made poorly

[@deadblade300]

So from looking at the condition of the cement and the ground in the surrounding area, I can guarantee that at some point that was a full halfpipe, what happened was that both the transition ramps were poured out of solid concrete, but they did not design a foundation that could support that much weight. As time went by both sides started sinking, but one side had worse ground conditions and sunk further down making it unskateable, so it was removed. In the flat you can actually see where the cement cracks and goes slightly more downhill because of the remaining quarter pipe sinking down from it's own weight.

There never was another side lol. Its been like that since I was in elementary school in 1996.

Im gonna take a guess and say this was probably a full half pipe/spin ramp a long time ago. When skating really started to explode in the 80s it was all vert, and if im not mistaken there was a healthy skate scene in Hawaii back then. It probably used to look similar to the Animal Chin ramp.

I remember seeing those pointed out in a video from many years ago that mentioned they do that for the camera to have a level spot. Maybe an x-games clip or a skate video. I wish I could remember exactly but that was probably 20 years ago.

If my theory is correct there should be info on a google search. They did local press and a bunch of posters usually so there should be info. At the end he says that there are a bunch more the exact same way so it seems like a traveling comp.
