Skateboard ramps have definitely transformed the sport from being something that annoying kids did to get in your way to a thrill ride of vert tricks, flips, spins and bails. Where would we be without the likes of Tony Hawk, who seemed to pioneer the massive wooden skateparks and bowls of the 80s and 90s.

The ollie brought us the ability to pop up and grind rails and kerbs, boardslide down handrails and manual across funboxes. There is so much fun to be had with a small rail, either on the flat or down (or up) a small ramp or incline. It is worth getting one just to practice your skills on.

Buying a ramp or rail to skate on is pretty easy. There are many online companies where you can buy one from. Probably the best is eBay or Amazon. Have a look at the deals below and get your next piece of skate equipment. Skateboard ramps and rails are here to stay.

Choose from small kick ramps, mini ramps and full halfpipes if you want. You can also get fun boxes for manualling and grinding on as well as small humps for jumping off. Each of them are made from top quality materials and have slip resistant materials on the bottom so that they don’t move too much when you laser flip off them.

If you want to make your own ramp, you can buy a set of ramp plans and build it yourself, but the cost of the wood, nails and metal coping (if you want that) will be much more expensive than buying a pre-made one.

Getting yourself an inexpensive ramp to begin with, such as a small kicker will help you learn how to jump, get height and ollie over objects that you would not normally be able to. If you are considering trying to skate at a skatepark at some point, using a ramp at home will really help.

Larger versions, such as mini ramps, full half pipes or quarter pipes will be more expensive and take up much more room too. Setting up a small mini ramp in your backyard is possible and the parts are quite cheap too. Buying a pre-made ramp is also something to consider. They either come pre-made, in parts to slot together or as a flat pack which you build yourself.

So if you are thinking of getting a ramp, make sure you check eBay for some cheap skate ramps first. They have a very good supply of ramps at all different sizes too. If you are interested in building your own ramp, you can search for ramp making plans too which are readily available.

Did your Dad skate?

Does he still have an old deck sitting in the garage from the 80’s or earlier? If so, he could be sitting on a goldmine!

Just recently, there have been $220,000 worth of vintage skateboards sold on eBay. Some of them went for over $5,000 (a 1983 Alva Hosoi deck).

That is some serious cash.

If you are (older) into collecting vintage skateboard decks and wheels, there are many to collect. Perhaps you are going all out to get all of the original Bones Brigade decks from Lance Mountain, Tony Hawk and people like that.

Perhaps a set of Crossbones vintage skateboard wheels will also look nice in your collection, along with some original t-shirts and stickers.

You have to make sure these are the real thing though. I expect there are some people who will start to copy the originals and sell fakes, but if you ever skated in the 80’s then you will be able to tell a real deck from a mile away. They were nothing like the lolly stick decks you buy now.
