A new ramp company in the UK have recently released a new type of wearable, ‘transformer’ skate ramp that boasts some truly awesome features.

Jumpack is the very first Skate ramp that’s totally portable while you ride or skate and even comes in its own custom back pack. While many ramp companies have ramps that they describe as being ‘portable’, they can weigh up to 30–40kg. So, when they say portable, they mean its portable if you own a van. If you’ve ever struggled with a 30kg suitcase when going on vacation, you’ll appreciate how portable 30kg really is. Can you imagine carrying that suitcase while skating?

Figure 1 Jumpack — weighs 6kg and transforms from a backpack to a ramp in seconds.

Jumpack is on a different level. It’s a lightweight (only 6kg) foldable ramp that deploys like a transformer in under 30 seconds with zero assembly required, and when it’s time to move on to the next skate spot, it quickly folds up into its custom backpack again for transportation. This makes Jumpack the first skateboarding kicker on earth that can literally go everywhere you go. You can essentially create a skate spot anywhere with this ramp.

If you see a gap, wall or rail that you want to hit, you can have a ramp in front of it in seconds. This ramp will create so many opportunities for skaters. Jumpack also has a really smart patented suspension system that’s built in to every ramp. This dampening technology ensures that the ramp won’t slide when in use, which is still a huge problem for some other ramps on the market.

In terms of skate ramps, this ramp opens the door to a whole new level of street riding and brings skate ramp technology into the twenty first century.

The portability isn’t its only clever feature though. It’s also designed to be modular so if there’s more than one Jumpack available, they can be ‘clicked’ together to make even larger ramps. If you can imagine four or five skaters each carrying a Jumpack, once deployed and connected the ramps can be formatted as a ‘mini-skatepark’ around natural features anywhere, a car park, a school playground or a loading bay. Jumpack gives you the freedom to turn any area into a custom skate spot.

And don’t worry if you’re only a beginner, Jumpack has three height settings to choose from so you can reduce the launch height until you’re ready to go big.
