Summer set up

Hey guys. I'm planning out a summer set up for the ol back yard, and was just looking for some advice/ideas.

I don't have a slope to work with, unfortunately, so there will be a drop-in ramp involved.
Thinking about 6 ft high with a 10 ft long ramp (40 degree angleish?) and being 4ft wide. As for the lead-up, thinking about 6-8 ft long with a 2ft high, 4 ft long kicker at the end with a few rails to play with. The surface will be outdoor carpet and maybe some snow fencing on the drop-in to make it a bit slipperier.

What do you guys think? Questions, ideas, advice etc?

Thanks

Yeah, I've been looking at the cult. Pretty cool stuff.

I'm pretty bad at ollies, so I'm starting with a kicker til I get better.

4 foot lobg and 2 foot high sounds like too much of a tranny for a kicker, mines lik 5 and 1
