LES Skate Park Replica for Agenda LBC Tradeshow
Long Beach, Ca
Agenda contacted OC Ramps about 2 weeks prior to the Agenda Trade Show that takes place June 28th to June 30th at the Long Beach Convention Center as they were interested in renting a custom made skate park to hold contests etc, similar to the Coleman Skate Park aka LES in New York, New York.
The Coleman Skate park aka LES is located in Lower East Side New York and loaded with tons of obstacles for riders at any level. The popular park was rebuilt and funded by Nike in the summer of 2012.
Agenda is not only the most recognized trade show in our industry, they are the most open & innovated lifestyle fashion trade show to emerge worldwide.
Once Agenda’s financial department took a few days to finalize the rental details; we had exactly ONE week for fabrication! So needless to say, we dropped everything & took all hands on deck for production.
The custom replica LES park included 10 different obstacles including Round & Flat rails, Ledges, Bank to Wall Ramp, Curved/Bowled Quarter pipe, Center section with Hubba’s, a Manny Pad & Wedge Ramps.
Our crew immediately ordered additional materials to tackle this rental. Once all items were delivered, it was GO TIME!! Our team broke up into groups and handled each obstacle.
The idea was to prefabricate as much as possible at our warehouse as we knew we only had 1 day to build on site/install, IMPOSSIBLE!
With tons of hours, Taco Bell runs and handfuls of Over-time our crew made the deadline for completion.
Install day approached on Wednesday June 20th. Our truck and trailer was loaded up early & we hit the road towards the Long Beach Convention center.
Once arrived to the convention center our crew unloaded and finished assembly on site which took over 8 hours to complete.
From drilling countless screws into high quality birch to painting the classic grey on almost all obstacles, the team kept getting pumped as the DEW tour was next door and plenty of Pro Skaters & on go-er’s would comment & boast how stoked they are & cant wait to shred the course.
Grinding away to precise measurements on site.
Basically we had the best community of cheerleaders to help make it a speedy process as we finished after 8pm!!
and TA-DA, just like that.. one dope replica skate park!!!
On Saturday June 30th the convention was open to the public, which included handfuls of skaters impressed by the custom course.
As the event ended 6pm, at 6:01pm we were there to dis assemble everything. Literally removed over 30 thousand screws within a few hours. Loaded up & headed back to the OC Warehouse.
Special thanks to Agenda for putting on an awesome event; it’s been a pleasure to work with and we appreciate putting your trust in OC Ramps.
