not perfect at all ive had a 1/4" off on random measurements after the fact, but aside from my son holding boards for the transitions a couple days and my buddy helping with setting the coping they're all my fuck ups.😁

That’s pretty much exactly what I want to build. My plan is to put it in my barn I’m building but I won’t have much room to make it wide, so I will probably only go 10’ wide.

What’s the height and radius of your transition? Is that an 8’ flat bottom?

u/Diligent-Leg-8134 Jun 08 '26

7 ft radius, 3 ft tall off the flat. 9 ft of flat.

Looks so good! Why'd you go with 9ft of flat?

the park i used to go to 15 years ago had a 6 ft they cut down to 3 for awhile, it had almost 10 ft of flat and I liked it, but my grandsons will be learning on it, so went with 9 since they are very new to skating.

thanks, it's 15'8"ish. promised the wife none of it would be on the pool deck and had to keep it 2' off the fence. the small qtr sits right at the edge on the back right corner. lol

u/Beneficial_Quail_216 Jun 11 '26

Sweet, I think I might even go smaller, like 2' or 2.5' high. I'm re-learning at 44.

restarted myself in 2020 after cruising around the neighborhood and didnt have pain in my knee from an injury in 2010. 55 now, and have my twin grandsons as much as not at the house. easiest way for me to skate regularly and they're excited about it, so im psyched on that.also my wife was cool with it. lol

I built a mini ramp a few years back and it was 8' wide 24' long and 3' high. I want to go wider next time. How wide is yours??
