LL Bean WinterSports Expo 2008Another custom StackBox Structure was the creation of mini Snow Flume that was designed for the tight space requirements in LL Bean’s Discovery Park.

LL Bean teamed up with its sledding vendors to provide a demo event of its latest and greatest sleds.

Union Square Street Sessions 2008The Union Square Street Sessions rail jam was the event that started the creation of Stackbox Structures. It was the realization by co-founder Rory Strunk that there had to be a better way to build action sports ramps then the standard model of scaffolding and disposable wood decking. The napkin sketch was transformed by co-founder Eric Carlson into the vision of a “snap and go” system. The new history of Stack Box started on the streets of NY with an 18 foot high ramp and one year later grew to a 90 foot high Snowboard hip jump with the only adjustable ramp system in the world.See photos, design renderings, and more... |

While Kevin achieved a world first on the StackBox Structures ramp, another record of note was the amazing location of this massive ramp in Central Park, NYC. Kevin Robinson became an instant fan of the StackBox because it was super solid and fast...See photos, design renderings, and more... |
