Halfpipe

A halfpipe is just that, literally, half of a sphere or pipe. These ramps can be used for skateboarding, snowboarding, BMX, or any other extreme sport enthusiast. Each halfpipe has two sloped sides and a flat section in between. Riders increase momentum by “dropping in” the ramp and going from side to side. Intermediate skateboarders can gain air by launching out of each sloped ramp. Tony Hawk is well known for riding large halfpipes. In the 2010 winter Olympics, pro snowboarder Shaun White proudly branded the half pipe and made it known to the world. Halfpipes are the preferred choice of ramps to most. Halfpipes can also be both vert ramps and mini ramps.
