Blog 5: ORIGINAL ramp tramps

Ramp Tramps

Ramp Tramps, there is no Webster Dictionary definition, there is no online thesaurus for it. Urbandictionary.com describes them as “Girls, normally in their teens who go to skateparks and try to look cute, when in reality, they have no idea what is going on. They just want to be seen and hopefully hook up with someone”. That definition however still doesn’t do the word, or name justice. In the world of BMX (Bicycle Motocross) and skateboarding, ramp tramps are the worst kind of human beings.
First let me tell you what they are not; classy, pretty, quiet, funny, knowledgeable of tricks and doodads, or nice. They wouldn’t be able to tell a ‘kickflip’ from a ‘bar spin’. In fact they probably think that a bar spin is the coolest trick they’ve ever seen. Which that is a quite simple one used for 'filler' if you will, when you want to make a different trick look coolers by adding in a simple bar spin. BMXers who lack creativity and skill use them as a crutch. I'm sure you care so much about that, so now I'll go ahead and tell you what they are: noisy, trashy, annoying, in the way, fake bakers (a term to describe women who artificially tan way to much and then look like a gingerbread cookie) and ultimately stupid.
In my experience I have seen many, they stand around on the ramps and park itself getting in the way and giggling. Eventually they get bored and sit down (yes as you may have guess, right in the center of everything) and stare at their phone. They think they look all cute hunched over with their low cut shirt, but no one goes to the park for girls. They go to ride and watch other people better than them.
There may be a question forming in your head, isn't this a girl writing this? What a hypocrite, right? Well I don't go to pick up boys there, I already picked up my boyfriend, and I learned everything I possibly could about the thing he is passionate about. Ramp tramps however have no care for the boy they pick up, they just want to be seen with someone who may eventually make pro. Which I'm sure they don't even understand what that means either.
There is another class of ramp tramp though, those are the girls who actually try to skate or ride. Most don't ride BMX however because the bikes are expensive, too expensive for something they will fake. So they usually buy a board from a place like Zumiez. Then they proceed to stand there and pretend to ride it around thinking they look cute. When again, they are in everyones way. There is yet a final variety, they are not tramps though. They are the boys who do not have any skill and stand around with their one friend who does. These boys tend to bring girls and then stand around talking about lifting and sex.
Everything sounds so stereotypical but it is all accurate, I assure you that you are getting nothing but the truest information. Ramp tramps give BMXers girlfriends a bad name, girls who learn things about the sport and have urgent care on speed dial for when their boyfriend breaks their face.
