Default Ramps/Features For Indoors.

Hey Guys,

It was Discussed at the AGM how we could make our indoors better...
we discussed taking our table to with us, Now although its HUGE! and a great feature, It need a nuclear scientist to put it together.

I suggest we have a look at some of these:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Osprey-Ran...ht_5946wt_1058

Or something along those lines, They will be nice and strong and pretty lightweight to store & move around.

I'm also looking at putting together a wall ride.

I just need to tap our secretary for some funding!

I think we should put you down on the track as an obstruction or ramp.....imagine the airtime

Default Ramp

Those ramps look ok, just the job and not badly priced.

Yea but that's irrelevant because you don't race buggies!
If you take time to think I positives, we could use then as a base.
2 of those with a thin hardboard/MDF top would be ideal.

Right boys
This can get sorted I have built sk8 parks and no sk8 park designers and have knocked up very rough experimental ramps from off cuts ECt before in my backyard
I can get plans of suitable ramps and possibly get them Cnc cut and obviously building them is no probs with a little help from our resident tradesmen
A few things we need ti no first
What's our maximum and minimum sizes for height and width
And what is the storage space
Do they have to. Fold flat like most of our ramps
This would restrict the designs a little
What material do they need to be built in and at what cost
Lastly will we have a couple of people to help out on the tools
Don't fancy doing it on my own

I've got some superb ideas for ramps and even one for a wall ride
Simple and not to silly or to much of and obstacle
But fun to drive in for sure
