Backyard skateboard ramp project - needs better plans
Built a basic quarter pipe last summer from YouTube instructions. It's... okay? My 10yo uses it but says it's boring.
I want to upgrade it but I'm not dropping $800 on a pre-made one. Has anyone successfully built something more complex? I can use a drill, saw, basic stuff. Looking at adding a grind rail or something.
Are there actually good free plans online or is that just asking for a safety hazard?
Quarter pipes are actually pretty easy to level up without spending crazy money. Have you thought about adding a down rail or a different transition angle? My kid got bored with mine until I added a 4ft section with a steeper drop - cost like $40 in wood and made it feel like a totally different ramp.
