Hi guys building this for my kids, it's 3. 2ft x 12 ft, and I cut all the transitions with a 6 ft radius. The issue is, the bottom of that radius goes past the platform line by . 5", so the flat start 9" too soon, if I continue the cut .5" lower I would need to rip some 2x3 lumber to have a lower platform. Is this necessary or will the kids be okay with the tighter bottom to the flat. I have no sheathing on yet so just looking for feedback.
Thanks

How did I miss this thread, and everyone else for that matter.

At this point just go with what you have and start the flat like you have it, don't lower the platform. Once the surface is applied I doubt that that transition from flat will be in your face apparent. For mini ramps, the more flat the better alot of people will tell you.
