Our story
Jim Bell & JBSR
Veteran ramp builder, skater and JBSR founder Jim Bell has been designing and building skateboard ramps and skateparks around the world since the beginning of the custom skate ramp industry, back in 1998 in San Diego, California.
Over the years, JBSR has become established as one of the most trusted and respected brands in ramp building. We specialize in custom-built mini ramps, half pipes, quarter pipes, grind boxes and skate bowls for residential backyards, brands, companies and municipal parks.
Along the way we have built for Nike, MTV’s Pimp My Ride, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Etnies, Element and Make-A-Wish, along with a lot of very happy families.

Skateboarding ramps are a safe and fun way to connect families, friends and communities, and to get them physically active together.
Our mission
We are living in a time when it is more important than ever to teach our kids the values of family, personal connection, community and staying healthy through physical activity. Our mission at JBSR is to design and build affordable, premium-quality ramps that bring those values to you and your family through skateboarding.
