Ramp & Advantage Line Scooter Board

A secure, space-smart scooter board ramp set for therapy-led movement programmes in schools, clinics and sensory rooms.

This Ramp & Advantage Line Scooter Board bundle is designed to bring structured, repeatable movement activities into your setting, without a permanent installation. It’s lightweight, easy to assemble, and easy to store, making it ideal for timetabled OT sessions, sensory circuits, and PE/SEND interventions where equipment needs to be set up and packed away quickly.

The ramp includes a safety-lock end that secures the ramp to the base, while the base assembly is straightforward, eight screws. When you’re finished, the set disassembles easily for compact storage.

A standout design feature is the small ramp lip, helping create a smoother transition from ramp to floor for more controlled movement. The wide platform also allows a rider to turn a scooter board fully around without needing to step off, supporting continuous, child-led movement sequences and safer manoeuvring during group sessions.

Buying the ramp and scooter board together offers a practical, cost-effective way to add versatile sensory room equipment to your provision.

Why this bundle works in practice

• Flexible set-up for changing spaces and schedules (therapy rooms, hall spaces, sensory zones).

• Secure connection between ramp and base with safety-lock end for added confidence in busy environments.

• Smoother transitions thanks to the ramp lip, useful when grading speed and control.

• Wide turning platform supports direction changes, route planning, and continuous play without repeated stops.

This is a strong foundation for sensory integration ideas that involve movement, planning, and postural control, especially when delivered within a therapist-led framework.

Therapeutic benefits (OT-informed)

Used thoughtfully, scooter board ramp work can support sensory modulation and self-regulation by offering structured movement input and an engaging “job” to do (push, coast, stop, turn, repeat). Many learners find that predictable movement circuits can help them settle into learning routines and improve readiness for tabletop tasks.

• Vestibular activation (movement input): graded ramp rides, starts/stops, and gentle changes in direction can provide alerting or organising input depending on how the activity is set up (speed, duration, and rest breaks).

• Proprioceptive feedback (heavy work through the body): propulsion using hands/feet, controlled braking, and repeated transitions can increase body awareness and support steadier force regulation.

• Motor planning and sequencing: creating routes (up/down, turnarounds, stop points) encourages planning, timing, and the ability to generate an adaptive response to “just-right” movement challenges.

• Postural control and bilateral coordination: maintaining stability on the board and coordinating symmetrical/asymmetrical pushes can support core engagement and midline control.

• Participation and engagement in group provision: clear, repeatable circuits work well for stations, useful for school sensory room ideas and rotational programmes with multiple learners.

Ayres Sensory Integration®-aligned use (when appropriate): this type of equipment can facilitate active, child-led movement experiences where the practitioner grades challenge to support successful participation and adaptive responses. Durable skill changes are most likely when the equipment is integrated into a therapist-delivered programme consistent with the ASI Fidelity Measure, rather than used as a stand-alone solution.

Intended for use across schools, sensory rooms, hospitals, therapy rooms, clinics and the home, where appropriate risk assessment and supervision are in place, making it a practical piece of special needs equipment for varied environments.

What’s included

• Ramp (with safety-lock end to secure to the base)

• Base platform (8-screw assembly)

• Advantage Line Scooter Board

This bundle also complements broader sensory therapeutic resources by enabling graded movement stations that can be adapted for individual goals and group circuits.

Specification

(may need updating for latest version)

• Product weight: 22.5kg

• Dimensions:

  • Base: 65cm (L) × 60cm (W) × 35cm (H)

  • Ramp: 145cm (L) × 60cm (W)

• Working load: 115kg

Practical ideas for settings

• Create a simple “there-and-back” route with a turnaround on the platform for predictable repetition.

• Use stop markers and visual cues to support pacing, waiting, and turn-taking.

• Build progressive circuits (short ramp runs → longer sequences) to support graded challenge in multi sensory environment ideas without overloading learners.
