We had a warm up session at the garage-mini and then I piled into a car and we headed down. From the outside you would never suspect what is inside. The warehouse was rented and maintained by a core group of people. i think about 6 people pay a "rent" to have a key and then can sublet keys to other people who pay them. Guests are asked to donate $5 in a box with a bumper sticker on it that says "No Money, No Friend".
The only thing remotely close to this ramp that I have skated was FDR, and I have only skated that once. I stayed below the coping for the most part, coming up here and there for a 50-50 and some little grinds. Riding this kind of ramp with curves is very different than the back and forth of a regular ramp. one thing you can do though is get going very fast once you figure out how to pump through the pockets and up the walls.
It was a great time and I cant wait to get back there.
The video here is not of me. Also, I happened to take the video when people were falling so don't judge them on this video, it was mainly shot for to get the ramp.
