One example embodiment includes a mobile action sports ramp. The mobile action sports ramp includes an incline portion connected to a vehicle portion by a hinge. The incline portion includes a lower incline portion connected to an upper incline portion by a hinge. The lower incline portion folds onto the upper incline portion and the incline portion then rests upon the vehicle portion when the mobile action sports ramp is collapsed and capable of transportation. The lower incline portion unfolds into alignment with the upper incline portion and the incline portion then raises up when the mobile action sports ramp is erected and capable of use in various action sports. Methods for erecting and collapsing a mobile action sports ramp are also provided.

This invention is a relative motion amusement ride comprising having an inner compartment with a rider's area, a rotational drive and vertical drive attached to the inner compartment, a set of light panels disposed along an inner wall of the rider's compartment and along the perimeter of the rider's area; a light panel controller in communications with a database of images and computer readable instructions for displaying images on the set of light panels and door light panel wherein such display is cooperatively associated with the motion of the rider's compartment to coordinating the physical movement of the inner compartment and the image on the light panels to provide relative motion to the rider; an inner speaker for providing audio information in the rider's area wherein the audio information is coordinated the physical movement of the inner compartment and the image on the light panels.
