Kraton Can someone help me with their ramp building knowledge ?

[hungrybird]

It’s time to make a ramp to support the Kraton 6s . Any ideas on measurements to support the size of the 1/8 RC ? I wanted to make a ramp out of 1/2” thick plywood and use a piano hinge to have both sides usable . I’m not sure if I should cut in half and put it together , make it less wide , or leave one side longer and one shorter in length . Either way it will work as a ramp . I ll use something on the sides like a rope or chain to adjust angle . Thanks for any ideas or knowledge on the situation . A ski ramp will number two, maybe , but this one I want to be able to fold up and keep it simple . I don’t want to move around or have a 2x4 and plywood heavy piece taking up space . Right now it’s a 1/2” drywall about 2’ to 2 1/2 ft long with two bricks and a wedge support under the front area .

Different than what I think you are looking for but I just recently built one, I put it in a thread here:

There are a lot of other threads to give you ideas throughout the AF. Good luck!

Here's some advice, make two of them and set them up side by side. Eight feet of ramp is hard to miss even at 40mph.

No it's not.

No it's not.

Johnny, we’re talking about it being hard to miss for people not under constant edible influence

I've read that it's good to have 2x the run up vs the height. So I built mine 24" for the run up, 12" for the height. You also want a slight curve in the surface

I won’t miss under the edibles .
