hmm that sounds tight... im not sure what i wanna do... cuz i have snow fence just layin around, but i mean if turf slides better then ill just go out and buy that... im planing on putting either the turf or fence on a drop in, and on a couple of like 10 ft sheets of like siddin wood or something for landings and a lil room to go switch... haha

haha yeah same for me, my landing is gunna be pretty wide/long just in case im off balance on a switch landing or sumtin. I heard wet snowfence gives u a good amount of slide but u cant turn/slow down worth a crap. turf works a little better interms of control i would think, but wet snowfence a little faster. but agian, im not sure cus i havnt tried either yet

yeah... hahaha i wish someone lived by me with the shit already set up... so i could see what one i liked better... but then again... why would u wanna go slow on a rail or box.. hahah i think the faster it is... the cleaner it looks.. unless u like to toss ur body around on the switch-up or something... haha but yeah... maybe ill make a drop in of both... and see what happens

just try snowfence and see how it goes? you can also use metal which works really well if you do it right.

use the snow fence it slides really really well and with turf u always have to use soap and water it gets to be a muddy mess too

my experience with snow fence wasnt to great. i dont know if it was the stuff i got but it kept bunching up and my skis would go through the holes and rip it.
