Hi,

Son is 14 and I've been all Mountain Woods rider and not a lot of jump. Tend to manual over stuff instead of popping.

We are looking to start jumping.
We build a 1' Wedge Ramp, and can build a Pallet Table.

Is there anywhere people know of were we can print blueprints for a 1' kicker or larger?
Something that we can use to model the standard kicker curve. I try to draw it out on plywood and it comes out all janky.

The key is to use string or tape measure fixed at one end and hold a pencil at the other with the side of the ramp

This site has all you need really just shorten the hight, also for mtb, an 8' radius will be nicer

These are for quarter pipes and vert ramps, but the radius drawing technique also applies to launch ramps. I think 18" mimum is a respectable height. 12" is too short.

You are going to find plans for skateboard launch ramps / kickers that are steeper transition than typical bike ramps. Also, mountain bikes should have a longer/mellower launch radius than 20" BMX. Full suspension mountain bike launch ramps should be even longer/flatter--you need room and time to effectively pre-load suspension then boost.

the radius on these metal Freestyle Motocross ramps actually looks pretty good for MTB
