i would just start out with a flat rail or box. Those can keep u entertained for a long time. Once you have those then think about making somthing harder or more interesting.

I'd highly recommend a pair of flat boxes, or rails if your one of those anti box folks. You can use one for learning shit on, and if you build em right you can do kinks of all kinds. By right I mean dont have the ends verticle, slant them some so you can put them together.

The first rail I made was a trap rail with ends that can come off, so you could have whatever combination of rails you wanted.

What im doing now is making 2 flat boxes. and platforms that go under the boxes to make whatever combination you want, flat down up down, whatever. It should work well. In mid may ill give an update since it will be done by then.
