Give your ollie a sign to clear
The Caution Skateboarding Sign gives ollies and kickflips a recognizable target. The two-foot-high plastic sign weighs two pounds, so it is a feature you can reposition as the session changes. Bring it into the line for the trick you want to work on next.
Add skateboarding-sign character
This caution sign is made specifically for skateboarders, bringing a familiar sign shape into the spot. Choose it as a recognizable object in the line or in a photo of the session. Explore the Road Series collection for other street-inspired obstacles.
Work on ollies and kickflips over it
Use the sign as a target for an ollie or kickflip. Give the approach and landing a clear place in your setup, then return to the same target for another attempt. Choose the trick around what you want to practice during that session.
Choose a two-foot-high target
The sign stands two feet tall. Compare that height with the target you want to clear before choosing its place in the line. If you want to vary the target height instead, Skate Cones provide a bar with four positions to compare.
Take a two-pound feature to the next spot
The plastic sign weighs two pounds. Plan it into the equipment you carry to a session, then reposition it when you change the approach. Its light weight is useful when you want a sign target that moves with the day's layout.
Make room around the base
The base is eleven and a half inches wide. Place it with room for the run-in and landing instead of using that base measurement as the whole skating area. Our Space and Fit guide helps you keep the riding route clear around a small obstacle.

Questions about Caution Skate Obstacle: Skateboarding Sign
How does the Caution Skate Obstacle: Skateboarding Sign differ from the A-Frame Construction Sign?
The Caution sign is the lighter, smaller option: it is two feet tall, weighs two pounds, and uses plastic construction. The A-Frame is a larger 40-inch, 25-pound obstacle. Choose the Caution sign for an easily moved target and visual accent.
How can the Caution Sign add to an existing ramp setup?
Use it as a separate target for ollies or kickflips. Place it where the approach and landing work with the rest of the line.
Can I use the sign as a target for repeated attempts or filming?
Yes. Choose its place as a visible ollie or kickflip target and keep the approach and landing clear. Its recognizable form can also be part of a filmed session.
How can riders use the Caution Skateboarding Sign?
Use the sign as a target to ollie or kickflip over. Plan the approach and landing around its two-foot height and the trick you intend to practice.
Can I return the Caution Skate Obstacle: Skateboarding Sign if it is not the right fit?

Shipping & Product Info
Made with plastic
The internet has all sorts of terrible ideas as to how to quiet or dampen the sound of your skateboard ramp - in particular the mini ramps (or halfpipes).
You may read about wives tales on using insulation, filling the coping with whatever, or add pillows and blankets behind the ramp. We are here to clear the air….that is all nonsense.
There are really only 2 suggestions to help quiet your mini ramp.
- You can close up the back of your skateboard ramp with ¾” thick plywood. This will eliminate the hollow sound significantly. Again, don’t read into the bogus information about filling in that empty space before you close it up with plywood. It doesn’t work. Simply closing up the backend will help with the noise. Some customers will get creative with it- we’ve seen several put hinges on the backend - making a custom door for storage, etc. That is entirely optional to make use of the space. But in terms of noise levels, close it up.
- Also using a softer gel wheel is helpful to give you the incognito vibe your neighbors won’t complain about while shredding your skateboard ramp. Generally the harder the wheel, the louder they hear ya coming! Many skaters have multiple skateboards with a different set of wheels, most prefer the harder wheels during normal street skating use & then at night we switch over to the gel softer wheels so your neighbor’s can get their precious sleep & you can shred your heart out! Not every skater likes riding a gel wheel. There are many pros/cons. For this conversation, the biggest pro for having a softer wheel is the reduced noise factor. If you have neighbors that are goin to be a narc, just throw on the soft wheels!
