Huge News from Rye!!!

This ramp is going to be built at RYE!

Just got off the phone with Beau over at the Rye Airfield and man was he AMPING!!! Here's what he had to say... "HUGE NEWS - We will be building a new vert ramp asap. SO, this weekend is the last weekend of the current ramp. We will begin tearing it down on Sunday evening. The new ramp will be built by November 20th. We are the fortunate recipients of a generous donation that we (Rye) were able to match and the funds are enough to build a new vert ramp to the same specs as what is used for the DEW Tour. More news to come as we get it!" Now personally, I don't skate vert, but this may be enough of a reason to start. We are going to have a DEW TOUR ramp right here in our back yard year round. That is pretty damn awesome! I did a little google homework on what the Dew Tour vert ramp specs are and it appears the ramp is usually 60+ feet wide with big transitions and a couple of feet of vert. Add two 6 foot roll-in on either side and you got yourself one rad piece of wood. The new mini that is tucked in between the vert and clover bowl is going to lose the hip and the spine but the majority of it will stay as is. Have a click HERE to get an idea of what the ramp should look like.
