Skateboard ramps
Vert riding is one of the most extreme forms of skateboarding
– professional riders can get vertical up to 20 feet on half pipes!
Although beginners should avoid trying to match these extreme stunts,
there are many free blueprints available online to help them build smaller
skateboard ramps so they can develop the skills necessary to ride larger
ramps.
There are many types of skateboard ramps, including:
• Launch ramp
• Quarter pipe
• Half pipe
• Pyramids
Building your own skateboard ramps is fun and rewarding, but it’s
always a good idea to get advice from someone with professional carpentry
training. Remember: looking at blueprints is one thing; actual building
requires strength, perseverance and builder’s ingenuity.
