We jsut built a 10 foot double barrel PVC rail to use over the summer and winter, the only problem is that its 2 feet high, any suggestions on a ramp to get onto this thing?

my friend has these two wooden things that are 8 feet long just laying around in his garage, all we have to do is just make a stronger foundation and put some plexi glass on top and were gonna make a flat down

unfortunately we cant use it till winter, cuz we dont wanna build a drop in. when winter rolls around we build a pile of snow for the drop in, its what we did last year for the 10' flat we made. we tried a summer setup with the flat, but no luck. maybe cuz i didnt bring my skis and we only used my friends, whos are unwaxed. why didnt he wax them? "i thought they were". idiot.
