Its not in the right place yet. We need to move it onto the trail but first we need more astro turf. In the middle pic you can see our drop in.

the ramp is down lower. that rail weighs more than you would think so snowcase and i could only drag it to there from his garage. the rail is primarily for summer usage, so maybe we will set up a ledge for it, that has a landing, because i want to spin like a devil off of it

no elmo, snowcase cut a 20ish foot wide trail through the woods, and we will be laying down astroturf and carpet, and putting several rails/boxes in a line for summer use

the wood had a natural "c" shape to it, not too noticable, but defenitely there. we could have put the pvc on so it was straight, the rail still would have worked, but we put thte pvc on following the "c" of the wood, so as to make the rail a little more interesting.

you are required to own a set of twin tipped skis and bring a sheet of astroturf if you plan on frequenting my backyard set up.

yeah, once we found those pieces of wood, the whole project came together really fast. i guess if you cant find bent pieces, talk to a carpenter, or steam bend the wood
