Amazon.com Product Description
Foldable, portable, and remarkably easy to store, the FreshPark professional quarter pipe is a must for skaters who don't have easy access to a nearby skate park. Part of the comprehensive FreshPark skating system, the quarter pipe consists of a sloped main platform, a pair of 33-inch tall legs, and a narrow top platform with seamless 10-gauge steel coping welded into place for smooth grinding.
 The FreshPark Quarter Pipe folds down to just a 20 x 20 x 48-inch triangle. |
 Add other FreshPark quarter pipes and ramps for a complete portable skate park. |
By itself, you can use the quarter pipe for jumps or tricks, but the product's versatility really stands out when attached to other quarter pipes, which connect either side-by-side or back-to-back. Once the pipes are connected, skaters can go as wide as they want, grind across the top edging, or use the pipe for launching. The quarter pipe also connects to FreshPark's other skating products, including a flat launch ramp, a manual pad, and a kicker ramp. Combine them all and you have an unbeatable, portable skate/bike course that sets up virtually anywhere--in a large driveway, on a suburban street, or in an empty parking lot.
The quarter pipe is covered with a weatherproof urethane/ABS riding surface that's maintenance-free, with no painting or treatment required. And unlike wood, the surface won't splinter, rot, warp, or expand with moisture. And thanks to the 10-gauge cold-rolled steel tubing legs and adjustable leg supports, you needn't worry about the pipe collapsing after a particularly challenging trick. Perhaps most significantly, however, the quarter pipe folds into a compact triangle when you're done skating and comes with detachable wheels, so you can easily store it in a corner of the garage or virtually anywhere else. The pipe, which measures 47 by 33 by 10 inches (W x H x D) at its maximum height and weighs 157 pounds, supports up to 500 pounds and is backed by a 90-day limited warranty.

About FreshPark
Roger Hickey, a veteran action sports athlete and 20-time downhill World Champion, wanted to advance his street and park riding skills. After attempting to create heavy wood ramps which cost and weigh three times as much and are immobile, Roger invented a simple, affordable, fold up Street Park Kit that rolls into the corner of his garage after each use. Three years of research and countless prototypes resulted in FreshPark's complete line of skate ramp kits for aspiring and dedicated skateboarders.
Used in the interactive villages of top pro skate tours (X Games, AST Dew Tour, Etnies GvR), by recreation departments, community organizations, schools, summer camps, churches. and military bases, Freshpark has established itself as the leading portable ramp brand. Developed by pro skaters, Freshpark’s durable line of weatherproof, foldable ramps are easy to assemble, easy to move, and easy to store.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Overall, a very nice ramp,
This review is from: FreshPark Professional BMX and Skateboarding Quarter Pipe (Sports)
In my lifetime, I have probably built about 14 halfpipes and at least 25 quarterpipes. The problem is that I live in Ohio and the weather ruins them every year. I prefer a quarterpipe because it is not too obtrusive and you have more time to prepare for tricks. One of the biggest challenges of making a good quarterpipe is getting the bottom sheet to lie flat on the riding surface...especially after a few rainfalls has warped the wood!
I was hesistant to buy this ramp because I had never physically seen it. I had watched videos and read some reviews, but the reviews did not really give mouch specific info...hopefully, this one will! The ramp is a 9 foot radius and is a bit under 3 feet high. Although this sounds kind of weak, it actually is a fun ramp. The curve is deceptive. If you look at each panel, they almost look flat, but when you ride it, you get a nice lift. Its not vertical, but you can do airs. The transisition gets you to about 65-70 degrees and the coping is excellent. It is metal and fairly burly. Lip tricks are very fun on this ramp. The material of the ramp is an ABS type plastic...it will not rot. I leave my ramp out in the rain. No issues at all on the ramp, although there is some rust on the coping...I may need to paint it, but if you grind daily, it takes care of it. I am a big skater...I am 6'1" and over 220lbs. This ramp holds me with ease. It has never slid and I can drop it, do rock n rolls, 50/50s and ollies. The ramp does give a bit on landing, but has not changed its original form. The top deck is rather small, but it can support 500 lbs and allows for lap over grinds. The bottom of the ramp is a formed piece of metal which allows for a smooth start to the ramp...I love that. The ramps seems a bit abrupt at first, but you get use to it. So...here are the pluses and minuses! PLUS - Can be easily taken down and folded away in winter...or set up in basement! - The riding surface is fast and smooth. - You can link more than 1 ramp together...fairly seamlessly. - Metal support is top notch and all connections are welded on. So much nicer than wood transitions with screws! - The surface to ramp piece is excellent...very smooth. - It loks professional. I live in a nice neighborhood. I peeled off the FRESHPARK logo and it looks a lot less obtrusive from the road. MINUS - expensive. I bought 2... - not very wide. One unit is only 4 feet wide. I bought two and hooked them together to form an 8 foot wide ramp. When I just rode the 4 footer, it was not so fun...not a lot of room. Adding the second ramp made it a who new experience..more room and rock solid. Also, when I ride just 1 ramp, there is some sliding of the ramp. My kids can do it without any issue, but I'm a tad bigger. When linked together, no issues.. - the wheels it rolls on are complete garbage. I cannot believe how they skimped on this. I will be looking to replace them. They are plastic and have no bearings...will not take any abuse. For $400 a piece, you think they would give you quality wheels. - The ramp is loud. As much as I love the bottom piece of metal that allows for a smooth transition, it can make a LOUD clanging noise after repeated rides. I don't really mind it, but I am not sure if my neighbors are thrilled by it! - Heavy. This is good and bad. It is very solid, which is awesome, but when it is folded up and on its wheels, it is very heavy..150lbs (?) It tips easier than it should. If a child had this fall on him, it would not be good. Unlikeley, but I had it tilt a few times as I moved it. I was strong enough to correct it, but a kid could have problems. - Potential theft. I think they should provide a bar that you can attach and lock so that nobody can fold it up and take it from your driveway. I have to bolted together with 3 major bolts, so a theif would have to work to get it...but if you only have a 4 footer and leave it outside, it would take minutes to steal. I love the ramp. I looked for a LONG time for a ramp that would allow me to skate whenever I wanted, but would not require me to rebuild every year. A good quarterpipe costs about $200 to make. You have to relaminate every year and paint etc... This was by far the best solution once I rationalized I would skate it for many years. Those plastic ramps are total garbage...I never even considered them. I hope that answers any questions about the ramp. Bottom line is that it costs a lot of money, but it is the best value if you want this type of ramp.

Best purchase I ever made!,
By Peaceful Runner (Tulsa, Oklahoma) - See all my reviews
This review is from: FreshPark Professional BMX and Skateboarding Quarter Pipe (Sports)
I am the mother of a 13-year-old boy skater. The quarter pipe from FreshPark works great! He loves it, and so do all of his skater friends! I was hesitant to spend so much money, but so far it has been worth every cent. The quarter pipe is made very well--it is sturdy and safe. Although it is heavy, it is not too heavy to drag out of my garage, onto my driveway, and then back into my garage every day. Although my son loves the city skatepark, this has proven to be a good substitute when I cannot drive him there. I highly recommend this.(I have never tried to fold it up, so I cannot comment on the ease of that.)

looks awesome and works great in their video,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: FreshPark Professional BMX and Skateboarding Quarter Pipe (Sports)
I am 11 years old and a hardcore skater. I have been begging my parents to buy me this for quite some time, and they finally said that if I do good in my spanish lessons, then I can get it. I have seen their video on their website and it works great. Plus, the fact that it has detachable wheels and it folds up makes it probably the best quarter pipe on the market. The only drawback is the cost... I can understand why it is that much, but if you buy 2 and make a half pipe, that's [...]bucks. I highly reccomend this, but ONLY for skaters who have been to an actual skatepark, and have experienced a quarter pipe AND a half pipe.
P.S. I dont think this is made for BMX, so you probably shouldn't try going on it with your BXM bike.
