Just build a dirt one dude. it can be organised pretty easily!!

[shirefmx]

hmm portable downie's cost alot to make.... ard's setup on the truck cost em $160G lol so maybe go for a dirt one .... or i reckon you could make a decent wood one like they used on the warped tour for a few grand ... but its still a few grand that you don't need to spend

[kyle]

yeah the guy that owns the land were i ride wont let me dump dirt there, so he said i coulf use the dirt from the dam and an old f@ucked car for the base and then build a frame on top of it, me mates dad gunna try and get some steel girders and mdf and paintand put hay as a safety pad.
i wanna build one like this, oh and my ramp will be 2.3 metres high:

hey....... umm i was looking @ shipping containers 2 they are about 2 grand for a cheap one, thats without like freighting it ova on a truck n all so yeh go wif ur normal dirt downy we threw old tractor tires and 40 4 gal drums in ours 2 get the hight and with up then piled a shit load of dirt on top.

dude just get a oversized trailer frame from a dump or from the treading post and make it from there

[sexy_az]

that one on the trailer looksa good

[adam]

i wouldnt want to jump onto those trailers, they are real flimsy by the look of them!

[kyle]

i going to have to stick with a very under sized dirt one see what happens, iam learning SSG over the holidays if i get ride so ill get pics

Hey, I got an old trailer from a friend, spent about $500 on metal and wood, and built a decent downramp. My ramp is 6 feet tall, so the landing is that tall, but you could go bigger if you need. It's not quite finished in the pic, but there's a little ramp that folds down to ground to complete the down ramp. Hopefully this helps.

[kyle]

thanks for the help! get some more pics

[dirtrider2002]

Here's a picture of my down ramp finished

And here's a pic of it from the side, with my little brother jumping it.

that picture is huge! *help mungo as they cry*

$2000 for a sea container!!! hahaha. thats for a 40ft one. and you dont need a 40ft container. you only need about a 25ft container.

Sorry about the size of that picture, I thought I had already changed it. But here it is...

[Tanti]

Its not hard to make one but lol its hard to make it so it folds up and stuff, I realy wan't to build one!

[stavross]

one this show the other night.... there was this guy who came up short on a porty down ramp... and the next shot they showed was him but you couldnt see his face and all, casue it was all dark.... and he goes you cant see me casue my face is seviourly disfigured... cant remember his name...

[kx_rider]

i think that blow up bag idea they have on the front of all those portable downramps in the freeriders is a great, especiely if ya gonna come up short on them.

[choppamx]

I would want to come up short on some of those downramps... Seems unnecessarily more dangerous than dirt
