We've got 4 rails, 2 of which have permanent jumps, and the other two are able to be moved behind the 4ft jump we built.. Here are a few picturs.

yeah its much cheaper and easier then steel... but in the long run steal will last longer and give u more of the feel then PVC

Yesterday scientists for Health Canada suggested that, considering the results of a recent analysis that revealed the presence of female hormones in beer, men should take a look at their beer consumption. The theory is that drinking beer makes men turn into women. To test the theory, 100 men were fed 6 pints of beer each within a one hour period. It was then observed that 100% of the men gained weight, talked excessively without making sense, became overly emotional, couldn't drive, failed to think rationally, argued over nothing, and refused to apologize when wrong. No further testing is planned.

success! here are the other pics. they are all from last winter. we built the gap on a hill behind my house using two 1948 ford 8n tractors with plows on the backs and a lot of shoveling. to get enough speed to hit it you have to be towed in on a atv. our average speed when we let go of the rope was 40 mph. I dragged my generator up there and had 5 spot lights. the landing looks nice but it was kind of a failure because each time we hit the jump we would clear the landing by at least 15ft. I started building this years jump yesterday, i got a good start on it but it is supposed to rain tonight so ill have to wait and see how it holds up.



this is a good shot because you can see the 4 wheeler hauling ass. josh is the only snowboarder among us.


this one is me spinning a 3.

just keep your eyes open to find metal rails. we didnt pay for any of ours. we made our roller coaster out of the edges of a big metal wavy slide, and then we found two really long handraisl pulled out of the ground by a dumpster.

the big gap in the last one is about a 25-30 foot gap, the smaller steeper one is about 15ft. 30 foot rail and a 10 foot gap down below. i usually go off these on sleds though, like in the pics.
