The opening day of the vert ramp was a huge success and we had some awesome tricks on the vert ramp. Amazing to see the people are so amped to skate the ramp and that we have so much talent in Joburg!

Winners of Best Trick:

- Skateboarding: Werner du Plessis – Mute gay twist

- BMXing: Jehane Strydom - Tabogan

- Rollerblading: Hugo Vermaak – 450 Front royal

This was all made possible by My Culture and the sponsors of the event. Next time it will only be bigger and we have some great plans with the ramp and upcoming events. So watch this space!

All the event photos is now under the Photo Gallery...

Vert Ramp Official Opening in association with My Culture

We have finally completed the vert ramp and anything done on the ramp from now on will be called general maintenance. The final layer of paint on the surface did not come out as expected and is a bit bright, although this color works well in the shaded areas of the ramp. We will look at getting a darker color to redo the surface at some point.

We finally finished the final metal sheet layer and it’s looking very good. Had to cut some sheets to make everyone fit but was not too much of a mission. We also changed a few screws that broke close to the flatbottom and hope everything is now ready for the last coat of paint.
