an aussie comp would be a better all round ramp than a super kicker i imagine...

this may be a very big statment. but i think super kickers will die out due to the fact that more people are flipping of normal ramps

go a standard ramp. you can always jack them up, but you cant lower a superkicker without being dodgy.

**** getting a super kicker,unless your gonna flip they are not much good.just get a comp ramp and jack it up if you wanna flip.

I don't really know what sort of Aussie comp you're talking about anyway. Aussie comp ramps are 9.1m radius, not 8m, so are you asking if you should make an aussie comp, or a modified one with an 8m radius? I agree with Stavross' statement, I believe eventually the super kickers will fade, perhaps not so much for learning stuff, but in the high level comps they'll be gone since the best riders can already do the super kicker tricks off normal ramps. They won't be needed anymore. If I had a choice of what to learn a flip off into foam, I'd choose standard. Much easier to adapt to.

I think you should just go with a normal Aussie comp ramp. 2.6m high, 6.1m long with a 9.1m radius. They're awesome to hit.

You're Kidding!? I could build that for half the price and have it delivered to melbourne cheaper :p... They obviously didn't want to do a ramp, so instead of saying it they told you some crazy price... and If you did want them to, they'd make di ckloads for no work at all lol. Hire a welder, grinder and drop saw thingy and have a go at a ramp yourself :)
