How to make a Skateboard Kicker Ramp A skateboard kicker ramp is another easy to build structure that doesn’t require much wood. The dimensions of this kicker ramp are 6′ long, 4′ wide and 1′-6 tall. Where to get your Supplies The wood and hardware can be found at most home improvement stores. Sometimes you can find the steel there as well, I know my local Home Depot carries the coping and threshold material. If not, check the phone book. Look up Steel, Steel Yards, Steel Fabricators, Scrap Steel & anything else with Steel in the title. If this ramp is going to stay outside, it needs to be protected from the elements. A good place to start is with pressure treated lumber, paint and a tarp. You may want to invest in a composite material for the surface too. Such as Skate Lite or Ramp Armor. Be extra careful when working with treated lumber though, the chemicals used to treat the wood contain a poisonous pesticide. PLANS FROM www.diyskate.com
