When we teamed up with Christian Hosoi—one of skateboarding’s most iconic stylists and innovators—we set out to create a kicker ramp that does more than carry his name. It had to capture the spirit of his pioneering Venice Beach jump-ramp days while meeting today’s riders’ standards for quality, durability, and portability.

The Hosoi x Ramparts Signature Kicker brings that vision to life. Available in two formats—a 14″ banked and a 16″ transition—both 24″ wide, these ramps balance explosive pop with rideable control. The construction features layered sheeting for strength, CNC precision for accuracy, and an upgrade option for Gatorskins surfacing in bold finishes, including a limited camouflage edition built directly into the wood and phenolic resin for longevity and style.

​

Compact and versatile, these kickers are equally at home in a garage, side yard, or driveway, and they’re light enough to be part of a larger set of movable skate obstacles for a full home skatepark experience. Whether you’re setting up for a quick solo session, a family build day, or a traveling demo, the Hosoi kicker is built to roll wherever you roam—keeping the timeless jump-ramp spirit alive.
