Spohn Ranch has always been at the forefront of fabricated ramp design. We first set the standard as the designers of the X-Games vert ramps (half-pipes) and street courses. Over the years, as we’ve provided ramps and courses for the best skateboarders in the world, we’ve incorporated their feedback into each new version of our skatepark equipment.

We’re also proud to partner with Brad Siedlecki and Pillar Design Studios on our SpohnCrete projects. Brad is a licensed Landscape Architect and has collaborated in the design of many of America’s great skateparks, including the DC Skateplaza in Kettering,Ohio, the Goodyear Community Skatepark in Goodyear, AZ and the Verdugo Skatepark in Glendale, CA.

Spohn Ranch

Each of our engineers and designers participates in one or more of the sports we serve. They understand skating techniques and the physics involved. This knowledge is the source of our constantly evolving line of superior products—from the faithful reproduction of traditional obstacles to the creation of unique new forms of skating terrain.

We engineer our products to the highest standards, using precise fit and finish to maximize performance and durability. The expert design and quality of our products minimizes the risk of injury and creates a safer skating environment.

This expertise permits us to create ideal course geometry based on obstacle selection and user demographics. It’s easy to say layout is important, but it takes a depth of experience like ours to have mastered the complexities and subtleties of park configuration.

Pillar Design Studios

As a Landscape Architecture firm, Pillar is capable of handling multiple disciplines and has extensive knowledge of the government process. Through our schematic design phase we are able to meet the needs of both the Client as well as the end user of the skatepark. While most action sports facilities share the basic components necessary to provide the end-user with a functional facility, we go beyond the recycling of standard design concepts. Pillar ensures that each facility will be custom-designed and executed to meet the particular Client's needs, with the goals of maximizing the facility's potential uses and revenue streams.

As part of the Pillar Design Studios methodology, each Client receives a scope of work tailored to their specific needs and budget requirements. The approach to designing a successful park is all in the creativity, expression, and style that reflect the local environment while meeting the needs of the riders in the community. The designer works closely with the community to ensure the local park users have a stake in the design and layout of their action sports park, making it uniquely their own. The Pillar team creates a park that both aesthetically blends with the environment, as well as provides exciting and challenging terrain on which to ride.
