holy crap, that's awesome. That's a great backyard setup. How much did it cost you?

How do your neighbors feel about it? Very Happy

This biggest one is almost 5 1/2' X 20', the second one is 4'9" X 20 and hip is 4' on one side anthor is 5 1/2". When my BMX buddys come over, we have a removable roll-in that attachs to the roof on the high side of the hip ramp.
Jester, that might me possible, if your over 18 and sign a wavier. We usally have big skate-Q's, but this year we've been at the river almost every weekend.
Here a pic form one of last years skate-q.

The cost of the ramps, I'm not sure. We built them in stages. The biggest one we use alot of scrap wood for the skelly. I would say about $1500.00 total. The most exspensive thing is the masonite and the black steel.(the black steel we got free, along with lot of 2X4.)

I live some where in Santee, which is San Diego County. I usally only invite my bro's, so I can get quilty skate time too. We built the ramps becuase at all the skate parks all the guys would snake me, thinking girls can't skate. Confused

I will still sometime go to Poway skate though.

$1500 total doesn't seem right, thats about how much it cost to make 1 mini ramp, did you get alot of free materials, or deals?

Only $1500

Tell us how you did it for that cheap, that is such an awesome spine.
