I'm about to start building a skiing ramp that goes off my shed and I have a few questions. First, What surface works best for getting speed? I've seen people use wet turf and I just heard about this m-snow stuff thats pretty expensive. Second is a 14' ramp that is 8' tall big enough to get speed. I'm pretty sure it is, but I dont know how well the turf works. Please respond if you have your own set up, pics and videos would be cool too!
Thanks.

Join the Build-A-Jib-101 cult. Taught me everything I know. Astro turf with some soap and water works best pal.

You can also just use horizontal pvc bars, those make you HAUL ASS

8 feet tall is def big enough, but dont use snow fence on that height, that would be death

I hear rubbing poo on your skis works pretty well

i actually use sideways pvc piping with more pvc going vertically down on the sides to make a striaght path. msnow just shreds apart ur skis. and i use turf on the jump part and just wet it and i get plenty of speed

Have you actually used m-snow before?? PVC seems kinda sketchy for such a big ramp, does it need water or wax or something?
