@@MichaelRelevant Damn. I'm currently taking off the plywood on my ramp to replace with new plywood. I had wood rotting and mold problems. Luckily it's only a small amount of mold that hasn't gotten to the skeleton atm
Worst materials. Interior grade materials on an exterior application. This ramp will be unrideable in 4 years time. Hire a local ramp builder to build you something that will last beyond twice as long for around the same price. OC and Keen both use interior grade materials for their wood based structures.
Keen Ramps is so much more high quality; they use better plywood for the sides, they include 3 layers (adding up to 1 inch) of surfacing plywood for maximum strength. Their coping is the perfect size, it has no holes drilled in the top of the to grind over. You can get Skatelite as the surfacing for just like 300 more dollars, or you can get such high quality, kiln-dried baltic birch that lasts so long even when not painted. Their ramps are incredibly easier to setup than an OC ramp. On top of that, all of their staff skates. OC Ramps does not have too many skaters in their staff, they have normal old non-skating carpenters. Keen Ramps' story is so much better than OC Ramps. OC stands for Orange County, Keen Ramps is from Cory Keen, who decided that ramps actually benefit all skaters, but especially kids, keeping them interested in skateboarding and staying out of serious trouble. Keen Ramps is such a better community and organization while OC Ramps is an aspiring cheap corporate business. Anyway, congrats on your ramp to the skatepark, it's such a good feeling when your local skatepark gets a new feature. But if that skatepark is for some reason getting another mini ramp or you know or a different skatepark that could be getting a mini ramp, or maybe you yourself is getting a mini ramp I 𝙝𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙡𝙮 recommend a Keen Ramps mini ramp. Their website is keenramps.com
Keen ramp and oc should get along and make the oc mini spine but have the keen ramps parking block like how they have on their spine there’s the best collab mini parking block spine by keen and oc ramps.
