Mark Appleyard's triangle, wrapped in coping
The Triangle Apple Rail takes the familiar grind target and gives it a completely different silhouette: a six-foot plywood triangle cradled by galvanized coping. Designed with Mark Appleyard, it sits low enough to work into a compact setup while giving riders more shape to explore than another standard flat bar.
Not another flat bar
The Triangle Apple Rail uses a plywood triangle cradled by galvanized coping, so the working shape is part rail and part banked obstacle. That gives the setup a different decision than a standard round or flat bar without pretending the product is a full launch ramp.
Six feet long with a low, wide profile
The Triangle Apple measures 6 feet long, 24 inches wide, and 12 inches high, weighing 60 pounds. Plan the product footprint plus clear pavement for the approach and roll-away before deciding where it will live and stay during a session.
A ramp kit built to go together
The kit includes exterior lumber and plywood, pre-counted rust-resistant screws, photo instructions, galvanized metal parts, and pre-cut, pre-drilled boards. Keep those parts grouped during the build so the finished triangle and coping follow the supplied design without sourcing a separate hardware list.
Designed with Mark Appleyard
Mark Appleyard designed the Triangle Apple Rail around a six-foot triangular profile wrapped in galvanized coping. The attribution belongs to this exact obstacle, while the 24-inch width, 12-inch height, and 60-pound weight explain how the product will actually fit a planned spot.
Add one quart of Skate Paint when needed
Choose the Triangle Apple without Skate Paint or add one quart for the exposed wood. Keep the coating choice separate from the base rail kit in the order, then follow the Skate Paint application and cure guidance before the first session.

Questions about Triangle Apple Skate Rail
How does the Triangle Apple differ from a flat skate rail?
Its plywood triangle sits beneath galvanized coping, creating a wider 24-inch obstacle with rail-and-ramp character. A flat rail keeps the working surface on a narrower bar. Choose Triangle Apple when the triangular body, not just a coping edge, is the desired feature.
How does Triangle Apple compare with the Dave Bachinsky Crescent Ledge?
Triangle Apple is a six-foot plywood triangle wrapped in coping, creating a low rail-and-bank form. The Crescent is a ten-foot curved ledge that changes from a 9-inch low end to a 14-inch high end. Choose the compact triangular body or the long changing-height edge based on the movement the rider wants.
When should I compare Triangle Apple with Bump to Rail?
Compare them when the rider wants coping plus a shaped plywood body. Triangle Apple centers a six-foot triangle wrapped in coping, while Bump to Rail fixes a bump to a raised red rail. Choose the movement and route that the complete obstacle should create.
What tricks can riders practice on the Triangle Apple Skate Rail?
Use the Triangle Apple Skate Rail for rail tricks such as boardslides and 50-50 grinds, then progress to more technical slides and grinds as control improves. Keep a straight, clear approach and exit that match the rail's height and length.
Can I return the Triangle Apple Skate Rail if it is not the right fit?

What to Expect
We have two teams working around the clock to mass produce the beloved kits that are in high demand, after all we service ALL skaters worldwide! The fabrication time in our warehouse starts when you place the order as the information prints out directly to our team to start production. After the kit is created, the next process is actual transit time. We work with several carriers for a variety of our products to help cut down on transit times and delays.
Our Quarter Pipe kits (4ft wide Quarter Pipe & larger), Half Pipes, and sheets of GatorSkins or Skatelite Pro all ship on a double size pallet (4ft wide x 8ft long) via freight carrier. As the double sized pallet leaves our warehouse, the freight carrier will then begin the transit process to get your order over to your local delivery terminal. As your shipment arrives in your local area, the freight carrier will have an appointment setter call you directly to schedule an appointment for delivery. Just like when you book an appointment with the cable company, you will be given a 4 – 8-hour window of delivery.
The freight driver will then arrive at your residential delivery address on the day of your scheduled appointment. Please note that this will be a curbside delivery. The driver will not be able to pull into your driveway or any other requested area on your property. You will want to be sure to have 2 – 3 able-bodied adults, in total, at your place of residence during the delivery window to assist with the unloading of this pallet. Provided the size and weight of these shipments, a liftgate is not permitted and drivers are unable to assist with any of the hand unloading process. The pallet is easy to breakdown to execute a hand unloading process with yourself and a few additional helping hands.
The entire unloading process may seem daunting however it is a fairly simple process that can be executed within 10 – 20 minutes! Please keep in mind that delays may occur with the delivery. We understand that this can be frustrating. If you experience a missed appointment, please reach out to us and our team is happy to help.
If you notice any damages or issues with the order upon receiving, please proceed with accepting the shipment, but notate on the delivery receipt by stating “DAMAGE” when signing the delivery receipt. You do not need to itemize any material which was damaged when accepting the shipment. Once your shipment has been unloaded and signed, please email our team directly with the damage(s), proof of signed delivery receipt which has been notated as damaged along with full length pictures of the material which was damaged. We will work on resolving the issue immediately.

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!
