Title says it all.

Made that setup a few years ago in a little over an hour. 1 jagged concrete-filled rusty basketball pole, 1 tree stump as the front of the rail holder, 1 jackstand with the basketball pole only resting on it, some carpet pad with water on it, 1 pallet for the jump, some 2 by 4s, and some nails.

My skis took so many coreshots on this abortion of a setup. Gotta love that 8th grade Washington DC trip hoodie and pajama pants too. That only adds to the sketchiness.

yuck.

You nailed it. This is definitely the worst drop in. You have to hold onto the tarp ramp, and start sliding once you stand up?? then hop from a down slope to a flat rail? Then slow down the video because your ride was so short?

0/10 would not hit.

My ghetto setup. Only paid for the pvc, else was scavenged. Got the sliding covers from an old skiflying hill. Kinda sketchy on the speed, the covers need good wetting quite often so the speed varies from super fast to super slow.

Landing is also nice on some apples and leafs. Haha, actually I haven't used the setup since july I think, so the nature has taken over. I'm planning to clean it up in november and practice for winter.

plywood topsheet rainbow box on logs or something. The cbox was about 3 feet tall and hood as fuck. Can't find a picture though.

Also pretty much every urban drop in

that one's actually pretty sick. 8/10 would hit. I like how tall and long your rail is. solid setup.
What did you use for the landing material? It looks nice.
