MEET THE CREW.

Geoff has over 20 years of experience building concrete and shotcrete skateparks all over the country. He fell in love with skateboarding at a very young age, even before his Dad bought him his first skateboard for his 8th birthday (1998). Geoff started building ramps out of what ever scrap wood he could find and was experimenting with concrete by 2003.
His passion for skateboarding and building concrete skate parks is stronger than ever. What Geoff finds most amazing and rewarding these days is holding his daughters hands while she rides her skateboard on the same concrete that he has so many memories on. Geoff is excited by the opportunity to build more skateparks in his home state and allowing him to spend more time with his family.

Erik is a passionate skatepark builder with 15 years' experience learning the trade. Starting off volunteering on skatepark Projects in Ohio and Pennsylvania at just 17 years old Erik went home to western New York to do residential concrete to develop his skills as a builder until he had the opportunity in 2013 to start working for a professional skatepark company full time. Since then he went on to do parks all over the U.S.A. and a few internationally. He is currently studying architectural technology at a community college so he can design and build the best skateparks in the world and we are happy to have him on our team!

He has had opportunities to work with and learn from some of the best in the industry. Nick is an asset to the team at Catamount Skateparks, being a shotcrete nozzleman, talented welder, and having that skaters eye when cutting and blending free form shapes.

Ryan grew up in a rural town in North Carolina called Sanford with no skatepark within an hour radius. Have advocated for skateparks to be built since he started skateboarding. Ryan has now built parks for close to 10 years that stretch all the way from North Carolina to Texas and all the way up to the Canadian border. Skateboarding has always been there for Ryan and he believes every town deserves to have a safe place for every skater to practice and perfect their skill.
