With a passion for skateboarding and a desire to work somewhere that didn’t require him wearing a tie, Nathan Bemo founded American Ramp Company (ARC) in 1998. What started out as just a couple of guys in a garage has evolved into an action sports development company with worldwide impact. As an avid skater, Nathan’s focus was to design and build innovative skateparks.
To achieve this, Nathan assembled a world-class team consisting of skateboarders, BMXers, mountain bike riders, engineers, landscape architects, and veteran builders. These full-time employees make up our legendary design team. This team’s focus is to develop custom, poured-in-place concrete skateparks known as Pivot Custom.
Pivot’s all-star team is guided by renowned skatepark designers and masterminds well-known in the industry for the last 20 years, and hold a strong reputation in the poured-in-place concrete world.
Today, Pivot is truly the leader in the development of action sports facilities for communities large and small. From advocacy, design, and engineering help for a small town to a million-dollar skatepark built by Pivot’s specialty concrete crew, our team’s passion will pave the way for your custom skatepark.
Respectfully, Nathan Bemo
