kink rail, flat down, 4 inches wide, flat topped bar, 8-10 across, 15 down? or down-flat-down similar to our double kink. real mellow 15-15 a-rail. banked c-box w/ round coping, trap box w/ round coping, mellow rail about 31/2-4 feet high sloping down a bit with a nice snowgap on.25 feetish. all my ideas for now.
What the fuck do you expect? It's like leaving a crackhead in a room full of crack, you know what's gonna happen.

Jeff, do you have access to materials? Is this for winter use or for an any season jib?

Cbox with coping on the top and not on the bottom.
I like Shaun's drop box idea.

I think a flat box on its side would be really col. Build the box so when laid on the ground, the sliding surface runs ~30 degrees from the horizontal. Put coping on the top side of the box. Turn the box so its perpendicular to the hill so you can hit it coming from the left or the right. I havn't seen something like this before and its kind of a cross between a mellow wallride, box and a rail with the coping on the top. Lots of fun stuff you could do with it.

an s-box like at windells, but high off the ground. like the one pete olenik butters onto in the x trailer, or a triple kink box.

i know, but these are suggestions, for us to sugest to the hill as well. i heard word that james somers built a c-bax, but it's probably just bullshit.

Who is James summers and how can I use this C-box?

I would make that fucking shit if Martock would use it.

he is the rep for rossi snowboards, united riders, and spy. he used to be the manager for a-1 boardshop. it'd be probably put in martock if it's really real.

James had the frame for the cbox last yr, but when it took martock over 2 months to put HIS flat down box in the ground he gave up on the idea of putting it at martock. these fucking hills are so conservative it makes me sick.

Jeff, How much shit would I have to go through to give Martock my straight box and a Cbox for this season? Would it be worth it?

no I cant seeing it being too tough to do at all.. I can approach them on it for sure, I think we need to stipulate that the stuff needs to go in to our specifications though, and early in the year. call me to discuss. what are u doin with yer rails? peace
