@@keenramps amazing, can’t wait to see it! You guys have such likeable personalities it’s so easy to watch, even if you did videos of the day-to-day stuff you do at Keen I’m sure a ton of people would enjoy it!
Advice from a Lowes Lumber employee: a lot of stores sell ripped open bags of concrete for $1 a bag. Also make sure that you are scavenging from a dumpster and not a compactor that’s is hooked up to a building. You don’t want to be inside on of those when someone inside turns it on.
Thanks guys, this will definitely be a fun winter project to do with my kids as they wait out the snow and can skate outside again. Appreciate the specs!
this series is absolutely amazing. i hope one day to open up a lil diy spot and maybe someday a full on skatepark so this information is super valuable. i admire these types of things not only because its super creative and effectively makes ramp building accessible for everyone but you guys are also using pieces of wood/materials that were just going to be thrown away and wasted. pushing the narrative to go look for wasted material instead of wasting money is not only good for skaters pockets, it instills a diy independant creative mindset but this way of thinking is also great for the planet. wasting things like lumber when trees are what give the planet oxygen never set well with me, this video was just such a satisfying watch for me. ill be a subscriber for life after this one.
I really enjoy watching these "create and skate" videos. Building then riding what you build is one of the most satisfying things in the world. One of the best thing about this channel is that the owner can really skate!
@@keenramps I heard that, I thought that was so cool. Homedepot allowed me to give so much back to my community and I learned vaules that I'll keep with me forever. You keep killing it my man good things will come.
For the thing about the piece of metal at the bottom of the ramp, over here the car reg plates are 20.5 x 5 inches and they're made of plastic, works like a dream
Now this is good content! I've been trying to find ways to get some free wood and I knew about some of these but for some reason just seeing yall do it on video made it more clear to me that this is what I need to do. Haha
Around me they lock up all the containers around construction sites and security all over... Would be a dream come true to find places like this... I feel inspired to build something :D
I just built a ramp using pallets and my friends suggested for me to build a kicker I was hoping for you guys to have made a video on how to make one and who would of known a few hours later you guys made a video on it
Very nice kicker project !! You guys are so fun an generous. I'm trying to plan building this Kicker but the 10' radius seem quite steeper then yours. Could it be a 15' radius you have on these or is it really a 10' !?
I also used an old street sign for a threshold plate, but left a bit more length, transitioning from the ramp to the flat ground. The plate seems to be bending upward, away from the ground. Is this a common problem, and a reason to not leave too much length on the threshold plate, between the ramp and the flat ground?
this series is dope but its so hard to binge because you never set camera down, i totally wouldn't mind some time lapses and narration. either way i will still watch but, please consider a tripod!!! love it keep em. coming
Nahh for real though, the wood on the trailer is actually essential for being able to transport loads. Not only for strapping them down securely but also for being able to remove them safely. Honestly kinda fucked up(I have to load and unload trailers often for my job)
Very cool thank you for sharing I wanted to ask how far apart are the ribs from each other and from The Edge and how do you apply the plywood is it drilled on to the ribs or glued? Thank you
These vids are well good You should for real make a full skatepark like this that would be epic Maybe invite YT skaters to skate it and give it a score etc
That board from the semi truck trailer was actually what they keep under their trailers to use for loads for certain reasons and they actually need those and is their property.. would have at least asked the owner before grabbing that one. Lol but I’m sure they would be fine with loosing one. Hahah
Cool series, but.... My dad was a trucker with his own flat bed. When he came home it was my job to stacks those 4x4s and make sure they were secure. Those aren’t free. And they are needed to distribute the load or keep things off the flatbed.
If you go to the metal scrap companies in your area and tell them what kind of metal you want, like those plates where the wood meets the ground you can buy those from your local scrap companies. Mine will sell me any metal I want for scrap value, in other words you save a lot! A lot! of money. Of course you can get angle iron, round bar, the sky is the limit.

This series is so good! Can’t wait for “How to get a free multi-level indoor skatepark/training facility”
Thanks for the love, we definitely plan to do several more... including how to build a free (or at the least extremely cheap) mini ramp
@@keenramps amazing, can’t wait to see it! You guys have such likeable personalities it’s so easy to watch, even if you did videos of the day-to-day stuff you do at Keen I’m sure a ton of people would enjoy it!
For free😅
@@keenramps it’s amazing I’ve never thought of building my own spots before... I plan on building a 20x20 spot in Oregon. GONNA BE SICK
@@Kaydrobruh yo im in Oregon too! Hows the spot going?
Trucker: "Dude stole the friggin' wood on my flatbed. I was totally planning on building a kicker with it."

Yeah, wouldn't be the first time someone gets crushed unfortunately.
Solid advice!! Thanks dude
@@PHeMoX d@mn
what’s the store policy on taking from the dumpster?
@@dylanrogers2958who cares. just take it. i guarantee you the managers don't care either. itl just go to a landfill otherwise.
The piece of wood on the trailer I’m pretty sure that belong to the truck driver. Haha. For when he’s transporting things
Hahah yeah possibly shhh
@@keenramps not any more
@@thesnakesgames8899 yup
@@keenramps imagine... he just bought it and went back in for something else haha
Yeah they use those for added height or to stick behind the wheels :'D
Chance favors the prepared mind. When you have your eyes open for something, and know where to look, you’ll suddenly feel like you’re luckier.
Well said!
Step 1: dumpster dive
Step 2: buy $100,000 in power tools
Not even! Haha you can find tools on OfferUp and Craigslist on the super low. Or just borrow some from a friend or neighbor
@@keenramps or you can rent
$20 walmart jingsaw or skillsaw and a $20 walmart drill can do all this and more
@@keenramps I've got a circ saw sure but it's like cutting with a bag of cats, my quarter pipe is questionable
Harbor freight tools
Free is for me... tell me more Cory and Dan.
the most iconic duo in all of Long Beach !
Thanks for the love
Batman and Robin
It’s amazing how local this is, I know all these areas 😂
You guys are being so kind!! (I doubt I could order a kicker for a reasonable cost, as it would ship to EU and such, so this is very awesome!)
Thanks for the support, hopefully we can get some EU distribution set up in the future
@@keenramps That would definitely be nice! There aren't a lot of options available here.
Now all you've got to do is fly to America, find the supplies and head home to your brand new kicker
Thanks guys, this will definitely be a fun winter project to do with my kids as they wait out the snow and can skate outside again. Appreciate the specs!
With the amount of obstacles you guys have helped me build i almost have a skatepark

Thanks for the support! More to come!
As some who skates and uses a van for work, you sold me on the van!
You guys should try to make a half pipe I would be amazed
I just found you guys today and man, you guys are amazing!
Idk if you put it on yourselves but it also has a DC logo on the back 17:12
Wasn’t us actually, it was already on there
I was a Manger for homedepot for 6 years. Great company. Glad I have stock
Listened the audio book by the founders recently. Love their ethos

I love this series! You inspired me to build my own rail and its so fun!
Sick, love hearing that

Thanks we definitely will be making more
This series has helped me so much since I don’t really got that much money, love the vids

I made this and its one if the best kickers ever. This is great thank you

This ended up really sick. Way better than my version! Lol
Glad I found this channel.
It has a dc sticker on the back love the video .Iv made one for me and my friend.These videos are so helpful thank you
The ones on flatbeds are needed sometimes for loads to sit on. Be careful so your not accused of stealing.
Sideburn hair! 🔥
I love dumpster diving! So much cool stuff to find!
Just saw the Sebo photo with your kicker in the new Thrasher. Sick
This is hilarious! Such good content here, original.
Thanks for the love
Wow that ramp would be perfect for my local diy
Step one: Break into keen ramps workshop.
Yeeeess the type of video I’ve been dying to see
Love these videos! Can we get a how to build a quarter pipe?
The birthday party is soooo good!! Brand that asap and do a free birthday video
Giving this bad boy another view because I want a keen ramp for the low😛 finna build in the basement today.

Nice video!!
Whatever happened to the slappie manual pad? That 5 ft John Hill thing just too short for proper slappies...just sayin.
Use buy 2. Now its 10 feet and BOOM, problem solved
Shipping was brutal at 72” so we had to go 60”
@@yevinsohn3402 perfect!
in the background of when you where skating it there was the yellow pole behind that you could use the kicker to skate that
These are so rad it should be criminal
Gosh these videos are so entertaining
Glad you dig em!
Very nice kicker project !!
You guys are so fun an generous.
I'm trying to plan building this Kicker but the 10' radius seem quite steeper then yours.
Could it be a 15' radius you have on these or is it really a 10' !?
Master craftsman. Master skater. Great video.
Thanks for the support
@@keenramps you guys rock. Trying to get a few bucks together to order something from you. These free vids are inspiring too. 😎🙏
i love how theyre driven by skating and everyones enjoyment as opposed to the financial gain of running a business
Well this is also to promote the business
Aye I have that same shirt Dan is rocking, I've had it since middle school lol
I just got done building the grind box a wanna make a kicker leading up to it now lol
do it. . do it. XD great video.
man what a cool business

free stuff is awesome
What about old chain link fence poles for a pole jam or rail
Nahh for real though, the wood on the trailer is actually essential for being able to transport loads. Not only for strapping them down securely but also for being able to remove them safely. Honestly kinda fucked up(I have to load and unload trailers often for my job)
Someone was asking about buying a ramp on instagram. I dont have the money to buy one but i passed your name to them. Hope you get a sale!
Thanks for the referral, really appreciate that
Inspiring my friends haha
Very cool thank you for sharing I wanted to ask how far apart are the ribs from each other and from The Edge and how do you apply the plywood is it drilled on to the ribs or glued? Thank you
The plywood is screwed on, three per rib.
@@bakedbeings cool thank you! :-)
@@daniellopezeverest np, he mentions the ribs being 9" apart too.
These vids are well good
You should for real make a full skatepark like this
that would be epic
Maybe invite YT skaters to skate it and give it a score etc
Thanks for the support. We are holding onto all of them and definitely plan to make a video where we skate all of them
how is it to skate with sewa 😂😂 he looks exactly like him i swear. coool series love it gonna build some stuff 👍
can yall do a rail next?
i set up a street sign up on 2 parking curbs stacked in the 90s and was clearing shopping carts back 30 years ago- this is same principle
When they band wood together they use it to help hold the bands...
can't believe you crooked that thing!
i built a kicker ramp for like $80 bucks total with stuff from home depot (the metal was the most expensive piece, it was like $35).
i live near a bando and we went in side and found 3 no parking signs in a supply closet
That board from the semi truck trailer was actually what they keep under their trailers to use for loads for certain reasons and they actually need those and is their property.. would have at least asked the owner before grabbing that one. Lol but I’m sure they would be fine with loosing one. Hahah

I think that Cory has that same california accent Paul Walker had and the tone and depth of his voice
Cool series, but.... My dad was a trucker with his own flat bed. When he came home it was my job to stacks those 4x4s and make sure they were secure. Those aren’t free. And they are needed to distribute the load or keep things off the flatbed.
They did similar things to the van in movie GRIND
