- inactive, on 09/16/2008, -2/+39I remember building one of these years ago, ah the good old days.
- ironeus, on 09/16/2008, -2/+35I'm building one today!
- AmyVernon, on 09/16/2008, -2/+34My kids love to watch the older ones skateboarding, so I know I'm in for it when they get older. When the time comes, I could see them doing a project like this in the yard with daddy...
- Cancerkitty, on 09/16/2008, -2/+33This looks surprisingly easy to do.
- splinter09, on 09/16/2008, -2/+32I never liked vert , I'm more of a street style skateboarder, but dugg anyway .. skateboard 4 ever.
- ScottyF311, on 09/16/2008, -2/+30Yes, but how do a build a board that makes me skate like Tony Hawk?
- BrettFromTibet, on 09/16/2008, -2/+29I prefer smaller launch ramps or a good old pyramid box to the quarter pipe... there was something kind of half-baked about them...
- edstate, on 09/16/2008, -2/+28Nice! I would've killed someone for these plans a decade ago... sadly, my knees won't let me skate anymore. Or kill anymore, for that matter. :(
- inactive, on 09/16/2008, -4/+26i thought it said how to build a quarter gram.
- Surferess, on 09/16/2008, -2/+22I like the couch at the end. It is a nice addition.
- inactive, on 09/17/2008, -1/+18Trying to get my kids into something safer, like lion taming or disarming bombs.
- handheldchimp, on 09/17/2008, -1/+18More like "How to prove nobody on Digg skates."
- DigSomeMore, on 09/16/2008, -1/+18Haha, wish I was younger to build this...
- leerayIG88, on 09/16/2008, -10/+26I hope you kids fall off from your home made pipe and break a leg.
- inactive, on 09/16/2008, -1/+15I do this and they will be calling the EMT
- santaliqueur, on 09/17/2008, -1/+15Kid tribe member: It's like skateboarding, but half the time someone dies.
Fry: Oh. So it's a little safer than skateboarding. (smirk) - kellfinder, on 09/16/2008, -2/+16I should show this to my son. On second thought..... maybe not!
- slowmo, on 09/17/2008, -1/+14So how do I build me a half pipe?
- inactive, on 09/16/2008, -1/+14Great instructions and the pictures really help!
- AlpineStars777, on 09/17/2008, -1/+13Two shoulder reconstructions with one on the way. Wouldn't have changed a thing.
- inactive, on 09/17/2008, -1/+13this is good stuff
- inactive, on 09/17/2008, -1/+13I'm 29 and finished with skateboarding but I skated for like ten years. We always had a few ramps build in our back yards. I've probably helped build 5 or 6 in my time.
- inactive, on 09/17/2008, -1/+12Great instructions I've always wanted to build one :)
- D3koy, on 09/17/2008, -1/+12Ok, I think we should totally pool our money and build like 12 of these, and make a 3 loop track...
- steve9924, on 09/16/2008, -0/+11perfect,can you build me one too please?
- inactive, on 09/17/2008, -1/+12There is no way I am telling my son about this. He will have the whole family outside building. OY
- santaliqueur, on 09/17/2008, -0/+11On a lighter note, I hope your kids get into acting and break a leg.
- metapop, on 09/17/2008, -0/+10yes, and we can litter it with rings and call it "green hill zone"
- louiebaur, on 09/16/2008, -0/+10Yea but there is nothing like hitting a little 8 foot quarter pipe for a few hours and learning new tricks on it so you can take em to the mini ramp:-)
- jmcd1984, on 09/17/2008, -0/+10Diggers are lazy and will not do this.
- nymphetamine, on 09/17/2008, -1/+10All these comments are dugg up suspciously high...
- mrsteveman1, on 09/17/2008, -0/+9It is, until you start carting home 8 foot sections of wood from the store and see just how big they are in a residential driveway.
Of course, being able to hit the ramp and fly into my 2nd story bedroom window was just...priceless. - rheaume, on 09/17/2008, -0/+9Damn i needed that about 22 years ago
- DanielShinall, on 09/17/2008, -0/+8Build two and push them together. Two quarters equal a half. :)
- KableKiB, on 09/17/2008, -0/+8Football isn't safe.
- UniqueJewelry, on 09/17/2008, -1/+9We built one for my son in the backyard a few years ago, not quite as nice but still fun...until the storm...neighbors didn't appreciate it in their yard ,lol
- inactive, on 09/17/2008, -0/+8just remember to put the top layer of ply wood so the grain goes vertical !!!!
- steve9924, on 09/17/2008, -0/+8this is what its all about!!
- sungoddess808, on 09/17/2008, -0/+7I'd be afraid of the liability issues in the event someone was injured.
- inactive, on 09/17/2008, -0/+7It is. Built one in about 5 hours 5 or so years ago with a buddy. It wasn't nearly as expensive as we thought it would be either.
- gazgolter, on 09/17/2008, -1/+8Nice diagram!
- iCanHasUsername, on 09/17/2008, -0/+7Ahh, construction sites in the evening. The skaters gold mine for supplies.
- SpookyBoots, on 09/17/2008, -1/+8That's nice.
- mrdiggdude, on 09/17/2008, -0/+6great news!
- SHv2, on 09/17/2008, -1/+7How to break your neck in 14 steps or less!
- psud0, on 09/17/2008, -1/+7Yeah, this is a great tutorial, instead of funding the real one.
- mightyslick, on 09/17/2008, -4/+10why does this make front page? and wtf people think about it a little bit and you won't have to read the article...remember putting tops on woodies? aaa thats right too young or too hands on for most digg users
- OGKHAX, on 09/17/2008, -1/+7i wish my dad had been that supportive of it. he never liked skating til he came to the park one day and saw me doing airs out of 9 foot bowls.
- metapop, on 09/17/2008, -7/+13they should also include these directions:
http://www.healthcentral.com/ency/408/000040.html - abw1987, on 09/17/2008, -2/+7"Your done now go skate your quarterpipe and have fun."
Your done.
Skateboarding for life! -
