i like to build mine really wide, like as wide as a ski is long at the narrowest. Also ive strated to like step down style jumps, bigger launch but with not that much kick, i think theyre better for spinning, and they look really sweet.

how i did mine was on accident. i built this foundation for a jib and i didnt like the jib so i took it out then chopped the snow up cause it was like ice, then put those ice peices to make a jump and its so smooth and solid, i can jump on it with my ski boots and it stays smooth.

since the snow sucks here in PA, we usually get a bunch of the ice chunks the groomers produce, pile them together, smash them and pack them, and then mold it into a kicker

The most important thing is a good flat before the booter. That way you have time to set your spins off the jump. Also I like something you can go fast into becuase the faster you go the easier it is to spins.

I think rails in general are just a phase. - Anthony Boronowski
