ok ns here we go. i just scored myself a free 5ft corrugated pipe cuz my dad is a contractor. anyway what would be the best way to enjoy this? i mean i know i should lay it down and hit it but has anyone had these in a summer setup before? i was wandering what the funnest way to enjoy this would be? also would it be a good idea to cut the pipe in half to make it 10ft?

definitely cut it in half. 5 feet is way to short. corrugated pipes are really fun, you can set up an elbow if you cut it too.

If you cut it in half you will have way more fun. 5ft is pretty much useless for learning stuff

would it be a better idea to look for another one before i cut it? that way i can use it as a bonk and stuff?

You could probably use a a part of your drop in. Cut it in half and flip it upside down and then line it with fence or msnow

Get inside and roll down a hill first. Trust me it is the most fun you'll have all summer. When that gets old cut her in half and jib away!

It's a foot(give or take a inch or two)
And I don't think I roll in a tube that small, sounds like fun tho!

if you cut it in half it might not be high enough to slide

Yeah that's why I was wandering if it would be a better idea to find some more of it? I mean you can never have too much job material but I didn't know what the better option would be...

I'd definitely find more pipe. 12-15 feet would be optimal. And build a decent drop in, don't half ass it.

Personally I wouldn't cut it.
All the pipes I have hit get f**ked after a lot of hits. If you don't cut it you will be able to rotate it and make it last longer.

hmm if its that small then you may not want to cut it, as said it will be pretty close to the ground. If you can easily get more I wouldn't do it.

If you can, get 2 foot diameter next time, thats what my home mountain uses and it's probably easier to ski/work with.

Yeah I'll look for some more then..but I didn't buy it, I was working for my dad who's a contracted and asked him if I could have it, I just found it for free.
