Heres a rail I found in the bushes of my dirt jumps, so I fixed it up a bit and put some legs on it from scrap wood from my deck, now it is a bit over 2 feet tall.

the support on that looks to low. Looks like it would tip over if you got to the top. Those are fun I had 1 in my backyard.

You might wana add some more supports on that high rail... and what did you use for the top? looks like it will slide really good.

heres a new rail made for free

the "U" shape one.

it used to be an indoor arch thing but the person i was workin for was remodeling there house and threw it away so i took it. also this other guy i worked for gave us a ton of those grey pvcs.

so we now have

12ft box
8ft "U" Rail
16ft fat double barrel rail (Which is broken at the moment as you can see but were gonna fix it)
10ft skinnier double barrel rail

i have literally the exact same rails

2 8 ft long double barrel with the exact same supports.

definitely put metal angle braces on the supports. my rails were startin to wobble all over the place after they got rained on once and the screws loosened up.
