Very nice. I grew up skating in the 80s and was super lucky to have a rich neighbor that built his son a huge vert ramp just like this. It was so cool to have access to something like this a few doors down. Sure everyone that skates your ramp is just as stoked as I was.

Thats rad, unfortunately it took until I was 48 to get mine, but better late than never. I know they all love it but I think I get the most stoked seeing them ride it. 👊👊

Hey I just want to know if you would do anything differently. I like this size ramp very much.
@pearsing01 Жыл бұрын
No not that I can think of everything works well for me. It's the perfect size to learn lip tricks on. And that's what I built it for. 👍👍

Sweet ramp! I just got my dream come true last year. With a debacle between the city and federal government here in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. City had to move their million dollar paved pump track just outside my backyard. Instead of the intended space along the river pathway. Due to denial of Access of federal lands. Forced them to build a pump station along the river. Good deal for me. 😊

Me and my buddy are building this exact build over the summer...ive watched both videos and screen shot your plans. Is there any way you could share the dimensions of this beautiful ramp!
@pearsing01 Жыл бұрын
Thats so cool to hear. The ramp has a 9ft9in tranny, 6in vert, is 20ft wide. That size was perfect for me and my garden but if I had the room I would have gone maybe a sheet wider. 👍👍

There was me going to ask you whereabouts in the UK you were. Nice ramp, not too high. Love how considerate you are towards your neighbours. Don’t know if you’ve done it but a bit of expanding foam either end of the coping reduces a lot of noise. I’ve subbed brother 👊🏻
