These were the ramps used in Grüningen 2003. They are similar to the ramps used in the Tunnelrace, maybe they were even the same, but they had been improved for greater stability.

Notice how important the rounding at the top of the descent is, so that boards don't scratch as they roll over the top. The longer the board, the higher the risk of scratching it when going down.
