  The Enterprises Worldwide Presents…MEGARAMPAGE Over 9 storeys high, as long as a football field, & the biggest action sport structure in the world today. The Megaramp…. Revered by every skater and bmx rider in the world. And it’s coming to Melbourne. THE BIGGEST AND THE FIRST ACTION SPORTS & MUSIC SPECTACULAR IN AUSTRALIA OCTOBER 31, 2009 @ ETIHAD STADIUM, MELBOURNE After months of whispers and rumours, it’s now official. The Megaramp is coming to Australia! On the 31st of October, exclusive to Melbourne comes the MASSIVE inaugural extreme sports spectacular, Megarampage, which will welcome the largest ramp the southern hemisphere has ever seen and some of the world’s best skaters and BMX riders – the gladiators of the 2000’s. As if that wasn’t enough, playing live are THE OFFSPRING, GOOD CHARLOTTE, THE WU TANG CLAN and KELLEY JAMES who will be making their way from the US of A to bring in this colossal event alongside Australia’s COG, MAMMAL and SHAMAN SON. Etihad Stadium will barely be able to contain the absolute magnitude that is Megaramp, which takes four labour-intensive days to build; the treacherous ramp is over nine storeys high, nearly reaching the top of the stadium, and covers over 12 acres of ground. The riders attempt ‘Big Air’ where they go for amplitudes of over 20 to 30 feet in the air, over and above the height of the ramp. We are not talking about some dinky vert ramp – you do not want to fall from this monster! BMX riders that are confirmed are American champs Morgan Wade, Kevin Robinson, Anthony Napolitan, Allan Cooke, Dave Mirra and Chad Kagy, and reppin’ Australia is Steve McCann, with judges to be decided in conjunction with Mat Hoffman.
