Nice upgrade from the old Prahran ramp. It's got a very satisfying swish, swish sound and although it's steel it doesn't sound anything like the old steel one. I was watching an old vid of Tony Hawk skatin it just the other day. He's so tall he made it look small lol. We had what I think was a copy of the old Prahran ramp in our town but I think they screwed the coping up a bit. It stuck out a bit further than it should have. The out was more like what the up should of been. So it never really got skated much. Woulda been alright for bump ollies and pre grabs I suppose. So there was that and it was intimidating asf for beginners lol. There was only a couple of guys in town I ever saw drop in on it and skated it any good. The bmx'ers and rollerbladers ending up using it more. Then eventually they cut half of it down into a mini then it got used a bit more. I was never really much of a vert/transition skater anyway. I did drop in on some big 10ft quarters at the old Melb sale yards skatepark at the top of Swanston st though. And I dropped in on a steel mini ramp in Bright with big arse monster truck looking off road wheels on my board. Fun times lol. Well that turned into a bit of a novel😂🤟☠
The new one is sweet, I think there will be some heavy sessions happening here this summer. And looking forward to it. The coping can be the make or break of a vert ramp. Thanks for the info. 👊👊👊
Thank you, I guess to me they are a bit of fun, as I got out of all of them completely unharmed, and it is part of what we do. You have to pay to play. 🤣🤣

Bloody Melbourne weather. Mad skating brother.🤟🏼

Thanks mate. 👊👊
Sick ramp good session keep it going
We were stoked, as it was a 1hr 30min drive and we got 1hr 30mins of skating before the rain. 😁😁
Sick!! Is this open to the public 24/7?
Sure is. 😁😁
Nice, what's on the ramp surface almost looks like Steele.
Some skate composite I'm guessing
It’s Steele
It is steel, and the joints are welded and ground down , so no joints . Super smooth and fast. 😁😁
It's the same ramp...
No this is a brand new build. Slightly smaller in height an extra foot of flat and I think another sheet or so in width. 👍👍
I enjoy your videos. But why do you only have slams in your Intro?! It’s not exactly inspiring 😅
Thank you, I guess to me they are a bit of fun, as I got out of all of them completely unharmed, and it is part of what we do. You have to pay to play. 🤣🤣
