Anyone everbuilt a mini ramp

Have any of you guys ever made any kind of mini ramp, quarter pipe or anything? if so, what was the size/cost of what you built. Implanning on building something, i was thinking a micromini ramp but im not sure yet.

I have a 4’ mini ramp.

I hired some skaters to help me build it, and they did an awesome job.

it’s pretty big, but it’s awesome.

you want it to be really wide (like 2.5 times the height)

I do a lot lip tricks, so I had it built with really steep tranny.

also, if you lay the wood down diagonally it’s a lot smoother.

Skatelight is nice for skating, but I just used masonite which I sealed.(my way is alot cheaper)

I think it costed about $2,500… so it was pretty pricey.

Hehe I paid nothing for the materials on the one I had. Got it pretty much all at the dump. Oh wait I paid $40 sorry:o . I bought some stuff that they put under flooring and it’s like super slick. You gotta paint it but it works just dandy. I wish I had it when I got into bcing :angry:

:astonished:

If you’re not gonna be skating on it, then it doesn’t matter if the surface is a little rough. Unicycles don’t bump about as much as skate wheels do.

ill be skating it, what do you guys think about…2 moderate sized quarter pipes?

:astonished:

Fixed, you twerp.

Holy shit. Where could 2 and half grand possibly go in a 4 foot mini ramp?

wood mostly.

most vert ramps cost about $30,000 I’m pretty sure that the X-games one was about $65,000

ps. I seal it so it’s nice and slick.

pps. maestro - you are the most annoying jerk I’ve ever seen.

also, it’s nice for flatland if your on the flatbottom, but the tranny isn’t that great for unis.

ps. I seal it for 2 reasons. 1 - It’s really nice and slick/smooth for skating, 2. - It makes the wood last much longer.

pps. maestro… you are the most annoying jerk I’ve ever seen.

That’s a whole fortune!
I could build a skate-park with that kind of money!

i dont like mastro either

yeah, that’s why not a whole lot of skateparks have vert ramps.

ps. miniramps rock. If you get one, you’ll never regret it.

So did you build it with your own money then?

actually, I did pay for about a fourth of it, but the rest was 2 years worth of no other birthday presents.

Toughie.

Is it worth it? How many acres of woodland were cutdown for your entertainment?

Edit: Just kidding. Congrats on your new ramp!

I think so. it’s awesome for skating(duh)

It’s nice for flatland uni.

it’s fun to mess around on.

yeah, we built on a bunch of grass which thrn dieded.

ps. it’s like 3 years old.

…with money from what job? You’re too young to be legally employed in this country…

What? There’s lots of ways to make money when you’re 14.
