tried making my summer set up today in my friends backyard that has a hill. We had turf soap and water but we still don't have enough speed. We used the hill in the winter and it worked fine. Anybody got anything? +k for any good idea

This thread title made me so fucking sad.

I've just completed my first 3 days of skiing for the whole season and already threads about summer are rocking up.

Jesus, I need to move...

Hard surface works well under the turf like ply wood but typically you need a drop in even if there is a hill
