Important Prep Work

Scoff project under wraps awaiting the rain

We are still waiting for the batch of new 2x4s for the project, but in the meantime I've been busy preping and pre-building a few parts of the project for the build days so that they will go by smoothly. We've added an additional 4ft piece to the flat bottom of the ramp. We figured that the riders would need more time to setup to hit the ramp comfortably and we plan to fix a problem we had with the ramps tranny back in 2 day which we never mention but will be explain on film (theres a good reason for it.)

Next on top of that I've built the basic structure for the rollin to get it ready for us to haul up and drop in its post holes. It going to be really tuff. As a side project also we've started building a skatepark away from the mini mega ramp completely out of scrap wood and old ramps to show what amazing things you can build out of nothing and how to get the wood to do it. The park building will be in the extras of the DVD and we might drop a few photos on here when it nears its finish.

Good News and Rainy Days Begin

So I've been searching Craigslist latey for cheap prices on wood. Luckily enough for me I found the perfect listing. Some church was planning on building a new building from wood and then decided to make it from metal. So now they have tons of wood that there not going to use. Hell yes, you know what this means?! 1 unit(=280 peices) of 2x4s for under $200! Not only will it finish our build but it will take care of the quarter pipe we've been wanting to build, but couldn't afford!
So yes! It will be a full mini mega ramp now. Making the build time a little longer, but it will be worth it.

An the project has had its first rain this year, so we covered a few things up with the parts and moved them in the shed. Suppose to have rain friday through sunday this week. An we probally won't have anouth build day for another 2 weeks (cause waiting to pick up the new wood)
But in the meantime were going to level out the whole ramp and move everything into its respected places and mount it all down so our time doesn't not go to waste.
