    Pro building tip, instead of drilling in the coping the way you did, you can get some allthread, and bend a little 90 degree lip on the end, stick it in the whole and drill a hole behind it in the 2x4 and bolt it in from under the deck, it works very well and there will be no holes showing or to possibly get caught up on. looks great though with the slanted Masonite, I love doing that

    Back when I was 14/15 I build a mini with a spine in my parents basement that also had a vert wall/ sub box off to one side and a quarter through the hall into the other room. In the garage we had a full bowl setup with 2 pocket airs, a wall ride over the death gap in another corner and a very wall. Everything was super tight and only like 2’-6” tall. Built it all during a weekend when my dad went on vacation with his brothers and dad to our vacation home in Minnesota. Let’s just say he wasn’t overly pleased when he came home. More pissed we cut 2 rafters out of the garage to fit the vert walls, but I got to keep it all. PS we had a unfinished basement that just had walls and 2 rooms.

    Micro mini ramps are so much fun when you have the space to put them, more so in a garage or shed, like mine is, so then regardless of the weather outside, or anything else, you can just go have a roll whenever you like. Small tight transitions are also more challenging so you can really push things if you want to, or mellow it all out a bit and have a good learning ramp or a place to chill, although having it too mellow can be very dull.

    Nice work especially for the space. I immediately thought that was a gap too. I've built a number of ramps in my garage: Started with 5' tranny, 34" tall. Very serious, not as easy as I thought. Intended on masonite but sawdust from woodworking made me go with birch which may be the GOAT surface, but 4x the price. 16 years later and I'm on ramp # 4: 6' transitions and barely 2' tall and it's my favorite iteration. Almost went with 5.5' and definitely would have if flat bottom length was a factor. But I can still deck a rock/disaster on it, and it's mellow enough to still learn new things even in my early 50s. I gravitate to quick transitions at parks, but I can jump on this ramp and have a casual sesh whenever, I don't have to work myself up to skate it, which is important because I have no idea how I got this old.

    Love the 5.5 foot transition. Built a 4 foot mini in 1995 with a 5.5 transition. Was a bit to steep for a 4 foot high ramp though and cut it down to 3 foot. Was so perfect!!!. Only 3 foot high but was still fast because of the tight transition which made it way more fun than a pancake transition. I'd say that is the perfect transition for 3 foot. Also when i first had it at 4 foot high i put a 2 foot extension on it with a bout half a foot of vert to do airs.

    I hear you on how tedious ramp building can be when you're in the process, but for me I still love building ramps. Maybe because I'm not a carpenter for a living, so breaking out the tools and making something is less of a common activity for me. Especially building something that big. Satisfying to go from your design to a completed ramp though.

    I had a friend in High school that had a big(about 25x20,I think) open unfinished room with high ceilings (like 9-10ft) behind their garage on a 2 story house that wasn't being used for anything. His mom was pretty chill ,and we asked if we could build something in there, and she said sure,ok. We made the Entire room into a ramp (halfpipe) about 4-5 ft tall on one side and the other was just a quarter to wallride. It was fun times when it rained or was cold. This was back in the early 90s , and I built a Lot of ramps in my day back then.
