Ive been bored on the day i havnt been skiing so i have been making myself a backyard park. I have 2 rails, and i made a box today. Its a fun thing to do if you are bored. Now if only it would snow so i could use this stuff.

heh homemade parks are my specialty since i cant hit ski parks on a sled. i have a 30 foot table in my yard right now which will grow. two straight metal rails, and a c-curved rainbow rail made from a trampoline. just set up a 30 foot double kinked rail at my friends house too pretty cool
what's a signature?

wes' house is also cool because we had a big hip and a big kicker. but now we can't hit those because his four wheeler broke down. it sucks.

peace,

Thats awesome man, I have(had) a sweet yard park, I wave a run in coming off of my roof, I get good speed, I have a 10' table and an 8' table, but shitty weather melted those, and I have like 5 or 6 diff rails, its pretty cool, took me like 2 weeks to make

I wanna try that at my friend's house sooo badly cuz he's got a nice 60 degree roof, unfortunately there aren't many good landings and it's a two story house.... That's a sweet picture, though.
