Take ice from your swimming pool and use it as an inrun for a jib. worked for me today. worked both keeping solid in a sheet and crushing it up to make snow. your out of luck if you cant afford a pool though

make an inrun, like out of wood, and place the sheet over the wood, so you slide down

I live in New York City and I have a snow gun going in my backyard at night. its the tiniest jib park ever. Just enough room for one rail. My neighbors hate me.
