so im making a setup for the fall and the winter, i have my rail built, but the only problem is that my yard is flat as fuck. then i has this idea that i would use my swing set slide as a drop, to save me some money and a shit load of work. It tried it out and it worked pretty clean, i was wondering f anyone has used something like this for a drop in?
thanks

never thought about that, but sounds like a great idea. might have a problem with getting enough speed though if the rail is long or the slide isn't tall enough. i would recommend going for it and see how it works after a week or so

it works really well during the winter with a little bit of snow put on it, you really dont need that much if you just rub some snow on it when its cold out it works, my friend and i used his for countless backyard sessions. i dont know about during summer

yeah i did that. it was sort of a temporary thing but while i had it it worked really well. the only problem was it was just wide enough to hold two skis.

I did it as a temporary thing too but id rather recommend making a proper drop inn ramp, so more comfortable and i got my ramp for free too, just found lots of wood everywhere.
