Carpet works well.


Actually, use wet wood.



Actually, use astro turf with dish soap and water.

you absolutley CANNOT CANNOT CANNOT go wrong with indoor/outdoor carpet. you can get it at home depot, or Lowes for real cheap, i got some 6X8 pieces for 17 bucks and cut them to 3X8 and made a 32 foot long in run. works great when its wet. actually, today i was sliding on it, then i realized it was dry and it was still doing fine, lol.

just try everything.
summer jibbing is about experimenting.
so find what works best for you.
anything smooth will be slippy when wet. mine is just wood. like a ladder. easy up, easy down. whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah?

go to a local football field that has turf and cut out pieces of it and use it for your in-run/landing

I just had a thought. instead of dish soap, If you wanted to make your in run really slippery, would lube work? Like Ky jelly, or even astroglide?
