As you can tell from our
name, we work exclusively with wood. Wood allows the freedom of
portability, interchangeability, and lets us be creative with our
designs.
Public or private,
indoor or out, we design and build progressive ramp and skatepark
layouts that flow smoothly and utilize space efficiently. We build
wooden structures that are unique, and no two parks are the same.
Custom vert ramps, mini-ramps, bowls and street courses can all be
expanded, modified and integrated to suit your needs.
Our estimates include
design, materials, labor, and detail work such as custom rails and pipe
bending. And we're fully insured, which makes installation virtually
worry-free.
Specifications:
We
choose our materials based on the project's location, indoor or
outdoor; and on the type of client, a private owner or a publicly
funded city park.
Indoors:
The framing is fir 2x6's and 2x4's, covered with at least two layers of
1/2" CDX plywood. Decks are topped with 3/4" CDX. Coping is 2" diameter
steel pipe and riding surface is 1/4" tempered hardboard or a
wood/plastic composite such as Ramp Armor or equivalent.
Outdoors:
All wood (frame, decks, and subsurface) is pressure-treated for the
outdoors. Coping is 2" diameter steel pipe. Riding surface is a
wood/plastic composite such as Ramp Armor or equivalent.
While
it is cheaper to surface indoor ramps with tempered hardboard, Ramp
Armor is an option that adds long-term durability. Outdoors, its
waterproof properties make it the only logical choice.
