hahaha honostly the big one isnt that bad, the only complaints i have is sore wrists after a sesh haha. yea only 30 bucks if you know what to get and how to use the wood properly. yes i am planning on putting sheet metal at the ends becuase its starting to crack at the bottom and it makes it a lil bumpy when you hit it. and no its not skatelight nor skate armor its hardboard and works just as well, skatelight is expensive as hell. try like 120+ for a sheet. im thinkin about doing skatepark architexture in the future maybe so yea. umm the dementions are really simple. 2ft. high, 4ft. long and 2 ft. wide as far as the tranny goes i did not keep a note on that so yea. sorry. and for the thickness of the layering i have 2 layers of 1/4 ply i believe it was and then the hardboard.
