I was just about to take this piss for not being HARDCORE DIY . My appologies you did a fantastic job dude. Very impressed. Thank you for the tips and making this video. I’m going to try one myself and I didn’t know if I could do it bit by bit because I’m all by myself and I was worried about the cement drying up before I could lay it. This really helped me. Thank you very much Cheers from the United States !
Me and my buddy are scoping out for a spot to build our own park, just us two left skating in my town but regardless we are really hyped. Your setup is sick. Thanks for uploading the building process.
J J do it!! There wasn’t really anywhere near by me to do it. I had done a barrier spot before but that didn’t last long. This is in my back garden...good luck!!
It took roughly 4 tonnes of ballast and around 20 bags of cement I would say as we don’t have the ready mix concrete i the UK. I think in total with timber and re bar included it came to £450 Hope that gives you an idea. 👊🏻
@@hotbrothcomedy yes bro. I plan on doing it in the next couple of months. I want to do a small flat bank (like a curb cut height) and form a rolled Crete curb on the top. I’ll do a video for it when I do.
Hi mate. Highly recommend it! Had so much fun and use out of it since it’s been in. Both my sons skate it regularly as well now so that’s an added bonus. the transition is only 375mm tall and 850 deep. I basically just adjusted the string/pencil technique until my two points met if that makes sense? (Ie coping/lip-bottom of ramp.) Hope this helps. Please feel free to hit me with any other questions

Hey man. I own a mixer and knocked it up that way. I used ballast and cement rather than the ready mix bags. 12 shovels of ballast to half a bag of cement mix. I think each bay roughly took a tonne and a half of ballast and roughly 10 bags of cement. Hope that helps.

@@markgundersen9408 planning permission....what’s that hahaha.. It’s mainly just a waiting game with the concrete. Once it’s in there at the height you want just gently start working it flat. Key is just not to play with it too much as all the water will come to the surface. You’ll start to see it firm slowly. Best of luck with it.. Get yourself a marshalltown concrete trowel.. about £30. Big up T
Appreciate that bro.! Yeah I know now I should have got the spray on it... I’m a plasterer by trade and I think with some of the newer trowels you get used to not having to flick water on the walls for the last trowel up so I think I was a little nervous with the Crete.. next time though..Thanks for the feedback.. always learning! ✌🏻👊🏻
Thats kind of an old school practice. Sometimes you can get away with it but in my opinion its not worth it. Alot of times it will cause dusting, crazing or premature wear and spalling since you are effectively skyrocketing the water cement ratio right at the surface. Same reason you never want to finish over bleed water. Nowadays there are so many troweling aids like Day1 that will bring up cream and actually strengthen the top surface of the concrete as it cures.
Poured in three sections. I would say once the concrete is all good in you are looking at a couple of hours drying time for troweling up. Hope this helps. ✌🏻
Only took me until I was 43 haha... added to it yesterday as it goes. Tiny flat bank with a curb on the top at the other end.. I’ll upload the video in the next week or so.
@@debnlinda I kind of freestyles the radius/transition. I think I went roughly 38cm high and 90cm out on the flat then formed a curve to join to the too marks up if that makes sense..

How many bags of concrete did it take?
I didn’t use ready mix concrete.

awesome
Thanks dude
Do you plan to add another quarter pipe?
Yes bro.
Although more of a flat bank with a slappy curb on the top than a quarter.
Plan to do in the next few weeks. 👊🏻
