| : Great! I really enjoyed seeing some real half pipe skating again.

: Our ramp is still in disrepair. Maybe it will be back in shape this weekend. Now lets see: They started work on the last weekend of July, the intent was to get the ramp ready for the contest on August 4/5 ...

: The work has been severely underestimated, as well as the necessary material.
Hey Bernhard,
one of our guys had access to sheets of Ash Plywood (at least I think it was Ash). He got his boss to sell him the lot for 900 dollars. He asked all the local skaters to help get the money up to make this happen. Within a week it was done, stripped, re-sheeted, payed for, and of course skated by yours truly! I donated 50 bucks myself.
See if you can get the skate community to come together to pay for fixing it. Worked for us! And btw, our ramp is privately owned by an individual, not by the city or a company. That might have helped to bring the skaters together.
