Hello friends of RAMP,

When we built our new factory in Park City one of the biggest things we wanted to do was create the most flexibility in manufacturing of any factory in our Industry. We wanted to be able to use any materials in the skis or snowboards and not worry about how the old tooling methods would be affected and also be able to change shapes at will vs. having to make a new mold. In addition we wanted to be able to do graphic batches in any sizes. So these were big goals and a serious departure from what the big companies can do. We were able to accomplish this by implementing ...

Hello friends of RAMP,

It's been very fall like in Park City for a week or two now, light rain, occasional downpours, a winter pattern. Snow on mountain tops this past weekend. I'm hoping this is a preview of what's in store, LOTS of that great dusty snow.

The factory is rea...

Hello friends of RAMP,

We've posted about the seven magazine awards we won in the 2015 Buyer's Guides (Powder, Freeskier, and Skiing). It's one of the things we are very proud to have won. I'm particularly excited about how we won in so many categories. Each magazine test i...

Hello friends of RAMP,

Happy Summer. Speaking of summer we get asked all of the time, what do you do in the summer, do you guys shut down? Although I wish we could. Whereas some companies slow down, we are actually really busy in the summertime. As a matter of fact, we tra...

Hi friends of RAMP,

The factory was just closed for 2 weeks, went so fast it felt like 2 hours. That's what happens when you have fun right? This time last year we were waiting for another test at Mt. Hood during Labor Day weekend to validate the final snowboard constructio...

Hi friends of RAMP,

We are getting asked about when the new 14-15 products will go live on our website. Well, it's live! The new skis were entered in several magazine tests last spring, and we can't wait for the gear guides to come out because we won seven awards, includin...

HI friends of RAMP,

A big topic around here this summer is OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) business—products we are being contracted to make for other companies that need high quality production with flexibility. One of the big reasons we created this factory was base...

Hi friends of RAMP,

Happy 4th of July!!!!!! At RAMP, we are especially excited about this U.S. holiday, as we spend so much of our resources, time, and effort making products—normally made in Asia and Europe—right here in the U.S.A. We are actively trying to bring ski and snowboard manufacturing back to America. The U.S. was once a major ski and snowboard producing nation. Rossignol had a big factory in Vermont in the 70s-80s. That closed and the production all moved oversees. K2 and Burton had big factories here and both eventually went to China for their production.

RAMP is working hard to exp...

Hi friends of RAMP,

Summer is rolling along, lots of great bike rides, paddleboard sessions, even a mid June snowstorm last week! We get asked at almost every demo and event we do: What is the difference between the women's and men's versions of your skis and snowboards? Fo...
