OUR STORY

It was summer 1995, when we built our first portable skate miniramp, which we used for shows around our local area in southern Bavaria, Germany. After only a few shows, we got a sponsor, who supported out shows and used us for his product distribution in Europe.  Already in August 1995, we were called to set up our ramp at the ISPO sports fair in Munich, being exposed to an international audience.

Only months later, we were asked to build 3 portable vert ramps for some sports related companies and eventually in Summer 1996, we were equipping a national skate series with portable ramp equipment.

The word about the efficiency of our ramps quickly spread to the USA and already in May 1998, we were shipping our first portable vert ramp to the NISS tour in USA, setting the ramp up right at beautiful South Beach in Miami. Reception was great, another portable vert ramp was ordered only weeks later to be part with the “Sports Illustrated Campus Fest Tour” with 50 stops (one in every state) in the USA.

Our real break thru came with the first event of the “Mervyn’s Beach Bash at Hermosa Beach in May 1999, when the SOUL BOWL was revealed to the public and got an outstanding praise from all athletes. Especially, since many skaters from the “Dogtown boys” were attending the event and praising the bowl.

We dare to say, that it was our portable SOUL BOWL with it’s owner James Leitz from IMG, which brought back bowl skating to the international recognized level, which it is today.

The SOUL BOWL travelled around the world from the US to Europe, to Brazil and to Australia all the years until now, almost 20 years later and still excites the crown and the athletes

Our new generation of vert ramps, introduced in Moscow, Russia a the LG Action Sports tour in 2005 set the new standard in vert ramps, both in rideability and in economical performance and are unanimously called “best vert ramps in the world”.

No wonder, most high level events such as the X-Games, the DEW Tour and legendary athletes such as Tony Hawk and Mat Hoffman are using and/or owning ramps from G.RAMPS.

In every summer X-Games since 2006, ESPN is using our vert ramps. Since 2010, every piece of transition in the “Big Air Ramp” at the X-Games is produced by us.

In 2011 we started to build concrete skate parks. Our very first park in Dingolfing, Germany is still on the top 10 list of “best skate parks in Germany”. Projects in Europe, Middle East and even Australia followed.

Our enduring skate park surface “SkateFlex” was introduced in 2005, our O.Y.O small ramp for everyone to skate at home got patented in 2010 and finally, we stepped into new fields such as Parkour, Ninja Warrior and trampoline parks with some outstanding projects inthe recent years.

Now, almost 25 years in business, with many interesting and amazing projects on 5 continents, we still get very excited by every new approach and upcoming projects.

We already got a few very high sophisticated Parkour projects under our belt.

Among them the supplement of an international competition during the Athletics world Championships in Stuttgart, Germany and some clever designed Parkour Areas at locations such as BounceLab Bern and others.

Meanwhile we have supplied a number of Ninja Warrior facilities for fun parks as well as for sophisticated traning facilities throughout Europe.

In recent years, we got to build several outstanding trampoline parks together with our partner EUROTRAMP.

Building theese facilities is a whole lot of fun, since we get a good exercise in trampolines as well.
