FreshPark Professional BMX and Skateboarding Launch / Kicker Ramp Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Was not sure what to get my 14 year old for his birthday; he had expressed interest in a plastic 50 dollar skateboard ramp at a local sports store but it just appeared to be a bigger version of the cheap 30 dollar ramp that fell apart last year. I investigated this item and decided to go for quality in spite of the cost. I do not regret this. He has basic to moderate skateboarding skills and is intimidated at the thought of skating with the older boys (pros) at the local skatepark. Since he started playing on this item his skills have improved dramatically and his friends love it as well. The previous reviews had indicated that it is very noisy. That is correct , but before I know it he will be gone and I will long for the noise....

Ten-Eighty Straight Grind Rail Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This grind rail isn't too bad. It's easy to assemble and disassemble which makes it highly portable. Its probably not the most sturdy rail on the market, but its sturdy enough. It can be raised or lowered to 3 different heights which is pretty cool. I think the legs may have holes in them if you want to secure it down to something. I compared the reviews of this rail to many others before purchasing, and this seemed like the best option to me.

Bravo Sports Skatepark Fly Box Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this ramp for myself when I first started getting really into skating. It has really helped me to become a better skater and it is fun too! When I bought this I could barely go down or up one side of the ramp without being to scared or falling off. Then I progressed to being able to go down one side, then being able to go over the whole thing. I can now ollie off of it and do kickflips on the tabletop. Now I don't use it as much anymore because we built a halfpipe in my back yard, but when I feel like street skating I can pull this out with my grind rails and set up a street course. This ramp is perfect for beginners and it is fun to learn on. Once you get to a certain point where you are doing kickflips over the whole ramp, it's time to put it away in the garage. This ramp is pretty durable and mine began to slip a little bit on the street after a year or so, but it has'nt really been a problem. I would recomend this ramp as a nice starter, but only if you can find it for cheap. I got mine for fifty and it was worth that, but I don't think it is worth much more than that.

Razor Punk Ramp Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Simple ramp, my son is 8 and thinks it is a lot of fun. However, it has to be secured to the ground or it slides all over. We didn't want to drill holes in our driveway, so I found some tent stakes and secured it into the grass at the side of the sidewalk. This way my son can skate or scooter along the sidewalk, up the ramp and land in the grass - much softer landing. I think it is going to take some practice before he actually can get where he can to the trick stage. I do see some potential hazards, so make sure safety equipment is in place for those kids not too experienced with ramps, probably not the safest toy, but a good starter ramp if used with supervision.

The Razor Punk Ramp is just the accessory you need to practice your tricks before heading to the skate park.

And the ramp can work either by itself or in conjunction with the Razor Park Rail (sold separately), meaning you can set up a virtual skate park almost anywhere, including a paved backyard or an empty parking lot. Best of all, the ramp, which supports up to 220 pounds, is easy to anchor, store, and carry.

Razor Punk Park Ramp And Rail Combo Set Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is kinda cool for the kid whose working on skateboard and bike tricks, but it's pretty small and requires bolting down to something much more immovable so it doesn't scoot away when the bike/board hits it.
We can't bolt it down to any concrete around here so going to look for a large, used piece of plywood and see if that works.
It's neat but consider how you'll make it immovable before buying.
