I see it in some of the movies posted on hear, of people setting up boards, then putting this green sheet of something on it, and they slide down it and hit their rails. What is it, where can I get it and how much does it cost?

Places like Agway and Home Depot have it. It's AstroTurf, and when you run water down it and use some soap it slides enough to get you moving.

Good question. I never inquired, my friend has a set-up, and I've seen it work but I don't know how much it goes for. Ask Misty7 or DynaRider. They have a sweet summer setup.

Would anybody happen to be able to find a close up picture of carving foam or a good functional description of it? Potentially, with enough info, I could somewhat replicate it. That'd be hot.

Have you ever seen a little kid slide back down the inrun of a kicker without going over? This is why parents shouldn't dump their kids off anywhere near the park...

^ Technically yes it would cause friction and cause a tiny amount of damage, but as long as you get it plenty wet and use soap even too for added slickiness it wouldn't be an issue. Most indoor/outdoor carpet things are made out of fairly soft plastic too. Your wax job would prolly be screwed up, but then again who cares? The rail does more damage by far.
