Default Ramps & Jumps

Hi all,

Can anyone advise if these are all self made or can you buy them for off road practice?

Cheers

Shane

You could buy something like this I guess,

I think you'd be better off making something out of plywood though.

Im with Alan you would be better of building it yourself then you can make it as steep and high as you like and as strong as you like.

For good wood you need ply wood 3 ply probs cost you £20-30 to do it properly

At our club we make everything ourselves...not seen anything you can buy that gives you any useful racing features.

Get some materials and get creative :-)

Agreed that you should make yourself. Those skateboard ramps are tooo narrow.
