The funbox is a contraption composed of one to two or more ramps (usually made of wood or metal) leading to a level plane.

Funboxes originated from skateboarding, and are now used in skateboarding, snowboarding, bmxing, and other sports where "air" is gained. The purpose of the funbox is similar to rails, the rider slides them while proforming a slide trick such as a butter (tail or nose press with a spin) or boardslide. A variation on the funbox is the battleship box.
