 original setup
NEW SETUP!!
my amazing drafting skills in paint
we've added a wallride onto the quarter thats into the trees that is facing the opposite direction as the rest of the ramps.... we're working on the bowl corner and the deck for the 4ft quarter with the hip.

so i had a reply before but i guess it got deleted... this all cost me about $3000 over the course of over 2 years. I got the mini and spine from the PIT skatepark for $400.(part of the ramp was stolen when they had it sitting outside of the park so i dont have the whole thing). My dad took a lot of the wood from job sites that he had worked on and i have some connections that got me the rest. The top layer i had to buy so thats where most of the money went. My friend gave me his mini which i used for part of the flat and the 16ft wide quarter. He paid over $2500 for that. If i bought everything at cost i definitely would not have been able to afford it. Some people have fallen off from 10 ft before i put railings up and some riders flew into the woods but there isnt much i can do about that. i plan on putting railings on everything now especially since some of the ramps are up on 8ft stiltsand heights are reaching nearly 15ft with some ramps. sucks because i had to build on a hill. Definitely a huge hassal compared to most of you who just have to stack bricks or cinder blocks. we got lights, speakers(not hooked up yet but my friend stole them off his own house), lawn ornaments, about 10 cans of bug spray, and a whole bunch of random stuff we found in the garbage or at rummage sales. I'm from southeastern wisconsin... anyone can come really as long as they wont start shit and they show some respect.

That's a great BMX set-up. Maybe you can stick around this site and help out the bikers that ask questions. There are a lot of sk8ers on here with good experience building ramps but sometimes we don't know what to tell the BMXers about their dimensions.

Looks like good times. I'm on the left coast so I won't be able to attend but I'm wondering if your ramp is skateable. No doubt it's a bitchin BMX set-up but I was wondering how smooth your surface is.

i've been slacking on putting pictures up since its been painted but i'll do it in a few days... its raining now so i cant. we had our jam and there was 6 bands and at least 150 people. we also got sponsors from local shops and Manmade Clothing. our next plan is to make a big bowl corner off of the spine with a curved wallride and a couple hips. i'll maybe post plans but we're planning on having that done by halloween because we are having a jam then. i'm posting the best view of my ramps in the post because my pictures arent working
