My summer setup

Finally got my summer setup finished the other day.  The drop in is 5' high with an 8' ramp.  Rail is 1'6" tall and 10' long.  Everything is pretty solid.  This thing only cost me about $10 which is what the turf cost.  All the lumber I got from construction site dumpsters, so some of the wood is warped, but that doesnt present a problem. 

I'll probably fix the tranny to make it smoother as well as the ramp onto the rail.

Haha no not yet, I just wanted to set it up and see how it all looked, I'm actually going to go get some more wood here in a little bit.  I thought about it though, but then decided I'd rather not get bucked onto my ass or face.

the tranny on the ramp doesnt look too bad its more the one on the jump.... get a piece of plywood and just curve the plywood by building a small frame for the jump and youll be set

gotta love summertime jibbing in iowa... me and my friend mitch built a drop in today and used old plastic house siding for the surface. its very ghetto, but i think it just might work!

i don't think the tyranny will be a problem. it looks almost exactly the same as the one on the setup we made and ours works perfectly. Maybe the jump is a bit steep though. might wanna lower it a couple inches
