...it took about 2 weeks to build and most of the wood was salvaged from our old tree house which had about $2,000 worth of wood on it.

very sick. id say add one more sick rail or box to make all that work worthwhile building that drop in and stuff because the rails you have might get boring after a while

that looks pretty sick. rails aren't real immpressive, but with everything combined it is pretty sick. and the wallride looks dank.

at a buddies house we built a 14 foot drop in with a 8 by 8 platform, and were building another one next to it 4 feet higher. one way were making a jump , another way a quarter then the other way a up/flat/down rail, c rail, flat rail and maybe few more. were enclosing the drop in and making a smoke shack.

its going to be pretty big b/c that ramp did turn out pretty damn steep (around 50 degrees or so) ... so yea the tranny will probably come up to at least that 3rd plank on the big drop in. btw the back side of the stall will have a huge tranny for that as well that comes up at least half way.

I dont think that picture from above is of his drop in.  Because when you look at the pics with both in it, its not "that" steep.

u should consider making the drop-in less steep. or your gonna have to modify it with some pieces of plywood or a shit load of snow.

I could do something like that but my upstairs porch would probably collapse and my backyard is like 50 by 50 feet. Nice set up though

Looks like you have no snow, and it also looks like a waste of time because you'll get bored of it really quickly
