    Yeah, but its easier if I show people here, then wait for someone to buy one and then hit it.

    I think that one was 6 foot ish, would be a perfect ramp to hit on 7-8" bikes over a hill

    I thought of picking up one of those little kickers to throw on a backpack for urban sessions. we kept coming across stuff and thinking: "if only we had a kicker to hit this sick wallride..."

    never got around to it though...

    Wood ramp? how long do you think thats going to last? wet season is rotting these wood! I am custom fabricator, if you want ramps.. let me know! I can build them. I have been custom fabricator for 5 or so years in professional offroad race shop, also 2 years in blacksmith iron shop.. and grew up family friends who build thier own race cars in garages. So if you want the ramps to be curved nicely I know someone who has those rollers.. i have helped a friend build motox ramps 3 years ago.

    I have had wooden ramps last over 5 years so i dont know what your talking about we live in so cal, not washington.

    I have built a few metal mx ramps as well and it gets expensive thats why people build from wood. If me and my Lil bro ever get going on our 9 foot folding ramp it will be done out of cold roll .095 and mig welded.
