5 foot high... ten foot rail.... i thought 5 foot would be fine with speed but the lip to the rail kills it it seems... i basically went off that how to build a drop in sticky thread.... and its not working

we were thinking just making the flat part higher off the ground and just dropping to the rail without the kicker.... i dunno if thatll even work though

we tried a plastic sheet on top but its super sketch.... does that construction fence really help that much?

1- transition is too long( the flat part) and you can fix this really easily.

2- put construction fence or anything that's plastic on the down of you drop in.

3- kicker is way too high for the rail, you could pop on the rail without a kicker haha but just make it the same height as your rail.

I'm pretty sure that if you do these things you'll have enough speed maybe even too much.
