EXPERIENCE: The Blitz Rider Ramps are made out of a durable plastic material, and have a small rubber strip at the bottom, in the middle of these ramps. The website advertises these to work on both a concrete and grass surfaced.
As you can well see, there is video proof that these do not work on concrete. I think the reason for this, has to do with the fact, there is not rubber on the entire bottom of the rider ramps. Perhaps if there were, it may not have slid like that, maybe a rubber mat will allow these to operate on concrete?
Somebody please get back to me on this and let me know. I even tried using a hammer to pound them underneath the tire more, before I tried to drive up on them. Unfortunately, this did not work.
As you can well see however, once I took my rig onto the grass, I was able to drive up on them just fine and lock in the parking break. These things basically rise my machine up to about the same level as my...Read more

These truly are a good idea, would make blade changing much easier, but I couldn't get them to work. Instead of rolling up on them the mower just pushed them forward leaving black skid marks all over the driveway. I tried going slow and fast with no success. I plan to return them.

I also had the issue of the ramps sliding both on gravel and blacktop but I have also had the same issue with the regular style ramps. I solved my issue by putting these ramps on the grass where they held fine. I think they need to improve the design slightly.
I do not mind lying in grass and once I got my riding mower up on these ramps I was very pleased with how much room I had to work with. With the regular ramps I never had enough room to work underneath the mower deck.I will be keeping mine.
Blitz does need to make those grips on the bottom a little bigger and that might solve the problem.
