Yesterday was my first time using one, and it ended up helping out a ton. You gotta get a group of people though if you wanna use one of those.

Definitely worth it, it saves a lot of time and effort while setting up urban features.  It can get tiresome pulling it back so much, but you don't have to drag around a heavy drop in or make one out of snow.  You can get some good speed going too for bigger features.

Just get a ski rope, have it go around a pole near the rail, and the have you friend, dog, snowmobile or whatever run away from the pole propelling you towards the rail
