yea man, what worked best for the kids i did it with. was put a tarp in your trunk and just pack it full of snow. or you can go garbage cans. you never have too much tho. get more than you need. it sucks to make another trip

Just wait till it gets colder, the mounds are huge. They never use the snow once its outside

bump, who else has tried this? How much ice can 1 rink give you after cleaning the rink?

It's like 90 degrees every day right now, I want to try it for a rail setup but I bet I will need quite a bit to last a day.

I have done it alot. It depends what rink size, adn how muchit gets used. The more is gets used the more snow. There is no standard amount for a rink to put out, it all depends. You should just go and check it out. Even in the summer when its 90 there is usually enough snow to set up a back yard set up.

You could always try some fake snow. This will last up to a month. http://www.backyardterrainpark.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=BTP&Product_Code=sg_green&Category_Code=snowgel
