if you've got a bunch of pro-skateboarder friends and you're splurging on a giant birthday party for yourself, it goes without saying that you're going to need a half-pipe. that's why billy rohan, a nyc skateboarder, came by vice's 15th anniversary party two days early bearing lumber, power tools, and an entourage of eager skater guys and girls. from there it was a hurried flurry of plywood shavings and bandsaw screechings as billy walked us step-by-step through the building of a mini ramp that can service a couple thousand partygoers. think of this little how-to number as the this old ramp edition of epicly later'd.
