if you don't get it wet, plywood works really good, or even some material wood works goot DRY! but its a little big, i'd go for plywood man

sometimes i take a midnight ride to the lical construction site but all the wood is too thick. It can't be bent. I'll try to find some plywood because pre-made kickers are too expensive.

$10 for kickers? Do they have 10 holes in them?
You can build one for around $20 and make it the way you like... I' m talking a nice kicker built properly.
Yeah I wouldn't really recommend buying any ramps on-line because for #1 you're going to pay A SHIT LOAD for shipping and #2 some company is trying to make a ton of cash from making them.
Just go to any hardware store and pick up a sheet of 3/8 plywood, it's light and bends easily, it's also strong but if you ollie onto it and push hard you might go through, but for a general kicker ramp I wouldn't worry because you're only riding off it ;)
