What's up everybody? So i'm officially an unemployed starving artist! the clothing company i was with fired me due to, well i won't go there and i won't mention names but due to contract discrepancies they left me high and dry not paying for art they owed me money for. Needless to say without that money for the art i am stuggling to pay rent so i have to sell some of my original board graphic artwork so if you were into Crimson and want to own a piece of skateboard history check out my ETSY page and help a brother pay rent. and if your in San Diego and need an employee hit me up i need a job ASAP! here is the link to my etsy page.

Cover of my new book, HOSOI: My Life as a Skateboarder Junkie Inmate Pastor. It’s the whole story of how I rose to the peak of skateboarding, faltered, fell, and found a new life in faith. It'll be out June 12 and has interviews with all the greats.

I'm going to be building a ramp for a friend to use but I want to be able to make sure that the ramp will easily be able to assist in clearing a height of roughly 5-6 feet. I realize as this is a kick ramp that his overall cleared height will be based on his ollie but I don't want the ramp so high it seemed there was no need for the ollie either.
I'm looking at this
from
http://www.diyskate.com/kicker_0…but it's not really helping, I understand the construction but the dimensions they give are all over the board. Any input from anyone or other links to determine the appropriate rise and length so as to not over build this thing would be swell.
Thanks.

@ albums: what you should look at is a quarter-pipe shaped kick ramp if you want 'air'...
it doesn't have to be very high (2' is a lot of kick), 'cause you can get some serious air off a small kick ramp, but you do want to get the angle right and have enough surface (length; 2-4 times the length of a skateboard).
- you don't get the same "pop" out of a flat ramp as you do out of a quarter-pipe kick rampsine
