My son has become an avid skateboarder and he sees the older kids riding by on long boards. Some of you might have already downloaded the free skate ramp plans. Of course, he would now like a long board. As a father, and woodworker, I will take it upon myself to provide a longboard from my son. A bit indulgent, but it is fun to show your kids that they can build anything that they want. Don’t be afraid to try.

A longboard is a nice project to build yourself, and with your kids. The style of the longboard can be customized to sue your taste and the graphics on the board can be one of the more fun projects you will be involved in.

The following plans were published in “Make” magazine. The file is a full PDF plan. Click on the image to view the full plans. You can also visit the site directly at http://makeprojects.com/pdf/make/guide_709_en.pdf

Good luck with your free skateboard plan. Get creative! If you build your own, please email pictures to us at contact@woodworkcity.com. We would love to publish your long board project.

Free plans to build your own skate ramp (half pipe).

If you have a child who is into action sports, they are as likely to have asked you for a skate ramp. Skateboarding and other action sports have become big business. Take a look at the skateboarding empire that Tony Hawk built.

This is a well laid out plan to build your own skate ramp. In fact, the site offers free plans to build

Half pipe
Quarter pipe
Grind box
Funbox
Launch ramp
Vert halfpipe

I liked these particular plans due to the number of pictures at each step of the project. There are also some videos included. This ramp is modular and can be moved in three separate pieces. In fact, you could fit this into a standard single car garage.

There is a nice material list and a cost estimator for the material to build the skate ramp. Just plug in your local costs and you will know what you are getting into.

Good luck with this free skateboarding ramp plan. Let’s hope the aspiring Tony Hawk enjoys it and stays safe.
