Quick question, what's the difference between the white and black PVC pipes? For me it seems like the whit ones are way slipperier, but a lot thinner and seem like they would crack easily.

Only a little rail but I am going to build more and join them up. The pipe behind is a 20ft x 6 inch soil pipe but I'm still thinking about how to set it up.

New rail: Its 20ft long, diameter is 6inch. Pipe is not attached to the supports but its heavy so it is solid. I added a little stopper on the bottom support to stop the pipe sliding off.

yeah 10 is a great length, that's what size i have, i'm able to get brittany's and fed's on it and my friend is able to get 2 pretzel 2 so that is enough to give you quite the variation of tricks on it

Dropin / Transition isn't done, and I'm thinking about angling up those extra pieces on the bottom, really stoked on it so far.

15' Long 1 1/2" PVC shotgun / 8' Tall dropin w/ plastic lattice / 6' Transition box (which will have Turf and a 3.5 foot wide lip)
