Make your own. The TRU variety are not very tall or very wide.

I just got off the phone with my friend he builds stages for conserts and he said he can make them its just the matter of who would like to buy one. He said he will do custom ones for anyone. So maby we got somone to do RC ramps for us

Good things come from friends

i think your just best off having him make one for you and a few close buddies. shipping on a wooden ramp would be rather expensive, at least to much to be worth it. you can also build a ramp out of PVC pipe and a board, all the parts available at your local hardware store for less than $20. PSUNITRO built a pretty good one that way, maybe he'll hop on here with the pic of it for you.

I always thought you built ramps with a shovel.

 

[CorradoPsi]

only the permanent ones. for your backyard, or at a local park, a portable ramp works great.

Looks kinda unstable,but when you plant the legs in the ground its OK. This was meant for 1/10th scale,I should have bought bigger pipe to make it.

Looks like a card table with two legs folded in.

I build em from home depot scrap wood all the time....only thing you need to buy is screws.....and you can leave it at the track when your done...if it's there next time all the better.....also a few peices of wood in my truck for quickie ramps on construction sites......OSHA (OHSHIT more like) inspector told me I couldn't play with my truck on his site.....but the guys hanging from the crane bucket with no harness to clean windows was fine....what a hypocrite!

I usually find the largest pile of dirt on a construction site or bash at the local BMX track. Either way...I look for huge air or find a way to make it.

Tons of fun with dirt and shovel...or the nearest concrete berm...

I have yet to work from a wooden jump. The last manmade jump, I used, was a prepared surface banked turn on a BMX track. Talk about air. At any rate...a wooden ramp can be easily constructed from several items...all depends on how mobile or transportable you want said ramp to be.
