Road Series

Bring street-inspired obstacles into your own session

A barrier to slide, a sign to clear or a bar that gives the next ollie a target: the OC Ramps Road Series brings familiar roadwork shapes into a skate setup. These are full-size skate obstacles, not miniature fingerboard accessories or equipment for controlling traffic. Choose the challenge you want to work on, then give it a suitable place to skate.

You do not need a complete ramp park to make a session interesting. One well-placed obstacle can give flat-ground practice a focus. The important part is matching the feature to your skating and leaving enough room to approach, land and try again.

Choose a target you can change or a feature you can slide

The Skate Cones set includes two cones and a 38-inch bar with positions at 5, 9, 13 and 17 inches. Choose it when you want to change the height of your ollie target. The cones themselves stand 20 inches tall, so use the bar setting, not the cone height, when planning what you will clear.

The Caution Skateboarding Sign provides a fixed two-foot-high target, while the A-Frame Construction obstacle stands 40 inches high. For a different session, the OC Barrier brings a Jersey-barrier shape for boardslides and lipslides. Pick the feature for the movement you want to practice rather than assuming every road-style obstacle does the same job.

Plan the whole line, not just where the obstacle stands

A small base does not mean the skating area can be equally small. Mark the approach, the landing and the route you will use to return for another attempt. Keep the line clear of cars, walls and neighboring obstacles, and use a suitable area where you have permission to skate, away from moving traffic.

Think about setup and storage too. The Caution Sign weighs two pounds; the A-Frame weighs 25 pounds. The OC Barrier can be filled with water to add weight and can connect with additional barriers. Those differences matter when you are choosing a feature for a shared driveway or a spot you clear after every session.

Add variety without crowding the spot

Start with one usable line, then add another feature only when the approaches work together. Browse launch ramps if a ramp-assisted approach is part of your plan, or compare grind boxes and ledges for a platform-based session. Buying two obstacles does not guarantee that placing them next to each other creates a workable line.

The OC Ramps buyer guides help you work through space, shape and budget. If you want a complete layout designed around a property, explore custom builds instead of trying to solve the entire park one obstacle at a time.
