^if you have any trees you can build your drop in using them as support for it, cuts the cost a little.

We're in central NY guys. He builds the rails for our local small ski area (this is the second year) we are trying to get a bigger park setup for this year, I instruct there, we both do park maintnance(they haven't given us the keys to the groomer yet...). If you guys are ever in/around central ny, we are gonna try to have a night time rail jam once or twice. We gotta figure out all the legalities and everything but yea. Tons of the wood was scored for either free (old shit at construction sites or w/e) and the rest is cheap rough cut, some is new. We got the scaffold last year. The stadium lighting was setup using sections of cell phone tower I think it is. We have speakers setup, its a good time.

yea it is a pretty family oriented place, small, nothing great except its 5 minutes away from each of our houses and we run the show there, he boards and I ski.

Peace

I don't want to put anyones stuff down. This was like 4-5 years in the making. We started off small with pvc rails and worked our way up. First year we had a double 4inch pvc 20 ft rail that was like 4 feet off the ground, then we moved up to a single 4 inch 30 ft rail that was about 5 feet off the ground, that rail was hard to complete without a good amount of speed and a picnic table and a 20 foot rainbow rail. Then for a year there we skipped the backyard park and put our rails up at the local hill. The next year which is shown on the site of last year we built a 20 ft flatbar, 10/15 flat down flatbar and a 8/6/8 flat down flat flat bar for the local park and we had all the rest of what you see. This year you can see what is new and my friend is building a lot of stuff for the park at the local hill. We are trying to take up a whole run, last year they gave us maybe 600 feet length to work with so we have enough for the rails, small wall ride and a real small jump... The year we didnt do anything for the backyard park we built a 55 foot gap to land on that hill. Snowmobile tow in at about 40 mph. Takeoff was about 15-20 ft long, 8 feet high, sessioned it once at night then the weather turned bad.
Sorry for the long post, but this is from years of building and learning. We are both in college now and we build some fun stuff.
If anyone wants to ride it this winter and you are in central ny, hit me up on AIM or something

Peace

hopefully you meant that the jumps were up onto the rails because if you can build a real jump in your yard, you either have a gigantic yard, or you just suck

replying about my jump?
It was in a field, snowmobile tow in, 55ish foot gap to the landing. It was like a huge table top almost, about 15-20 ft off the deck at the high pt
