put it on top of your car so when you go on road trips you always have something to jib

There really aren't too many other options than flat with a battleship...

Set it up on a table so that you have the option of hitting it like a small cannon.

make sure that it is not built into the snow. Try and build up a platform so that the box sits about 2 feet higher than the jump on. make the jump the same angle as the box and make sure that the bottom of the box is not in the snow.

no shit is going to be flat. i was talking about the takeoff and how steep the landing should be.

i was thinking about putting it on a flat table and matching the landing to the down slope, like the pitch, not having it touching obviously.

This.  Def do not have it as a ride on.  Vail's was set up perfect.  Click for larger image

That and the rainbow were set up the same way.  They didn't have a huge gap to the box, but you don't need it.  It could be hit faster or slower.  It's kind of fun to just creep over the flat and almost stall before you hit the down.
