standard funbox (jump box)
The table is positioned between two ramps (here tabbed as first and second ramp). The rider can go up the first ramp while performing a trick and leave the table by jumping to the ground or using the second ramp to accelerate again. To enable jumps from the one ramp to the other, the table should not be longer than 1.5 m. In general the table’s height is about 30-40 inches, a favorable elevation angle of the ramps is 20°.
Funbox with ledge
In many cases the ledge extends from the beginning of the first ramp to the end of the second. The legde offers the possibility to perform grinds and slides. The edges of the ledge are usually fitted with coping tubes, the space between the tubes is paneled with plywood or steel making it easy to perform 50-50 tricks. The relative height of the ledge to the table is usually less than 15 inches.
Funbox with rail
The rail provides similar benefits like the ledge, but it is easier to upgrade an exciting standard funbox to a rail-box.
Funboxes with special features
Boxes made out of concrete may deviate from the described structure and offer more kind of forms. For example, the box is connected to a wall making wallrides possible
