Last Updated: May 18, 2022 Tested

Do you want to up your fingerboarding game? It's even more fun when you can make your own obstacle courses and complete them. This article will show you how to make your very own fingerboard ramp. Start from step 1 below!

Steps

1
Retrieve an old cereal box. There are no set measurements for the box. It depends on how big you want your ramp.
2
Lay the box on its face and open the bottom box flap.

3
Take a pair of scissors. Cut up the right creased side of the face of the box until the bottom scissor tip hits the top of the box.
4
Cut up the left creased side of the face of the box. You should now have a flap that was once the face of the box.
5
Flip the box on its side and cut off half of the box, leaving the flap untouched. Now the flap should look longer than the box connected to it.
6
Set the "box" upright. The box should be able to stand on its own and you should have a basic box ramp.
- To give it a more stable look, lay the ramp on a piece of spare cardboard that's bigger than the ramp itself.
7
Trace the outside of the ramp. Remove the ramp from the cardboard.
8
Cut out the rectangular piece and use that piece to cut out a second piece.
9
Tape or glue the pieces onto the ramp. You should then have a more sturdy ramp.
10
Try it out! Nothing puts your new ramp through its paces like a test run. Use your fingerboard to jump off it, and if everything is ready to go, you can start using your ramp for tricks.

Warnings

If you are going to use a hot glue gun, be careful.
