well I'm currently in Tucson Arizona attending the UofA and I never got the coping installed, it's all framed for the coping and notched on the two outside quarters, the plywood is just temperarily butted up until I buy the coping. A little update is a new deck(12 x 16) on oneside. I won't have the coping on for another 9 months when I'm back for the summer. Ps I might do a 2 quarterpipe setup here in my back yard. I love how the housing market is so down right now, it's the perfect time to build a new ramp. I'm exspecting to see more project logs in the future so everybody go build a ramp and take pictures.

i also wanted to show some progression of my ramp building over the past few years. my set up in 2004 will be shown in this first link. i took the mini ramp out to build a much bigger ramp with a big wall ride that will be shown in the next video.  
 
http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid =104516
 
the ramps in this video were added onto but were removed as a deal i made with my parents.
 
http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&VideoID =1520909
 
this setup no longer exists as a deal i made with my parents. the deal went as followed:  
1. tear down the old ramps  
2. clean up the old location, garbage, wood, ramps  
3. grade the old location and spread gravel on both sides of the road(basicaly make a spot to park construction equipment and a place to wash the equipment.  
4. Build a new ramp across the field off of the driveway and further away from the house.  
 
the worst part of the deal was that i had to completely finish those before i could start the new ramp. The ramp removal wasnt hard as i lifted and saved the two big quarters with a bobcat. the rest i hoped on the bulldozer and completely demolished the ramps, condensing them into a very small pile. i then pushed it all up into a big pile. after this i lit all the scrap wood on fire and had a good old fashioned bon fire. I know it seems like a complete waste to destroy these but the new ramps are 10 times better and will be 200 times better next summer.  
now i am currently happy riding my new setup.
