put a rail underneath and you have to defy gravity to slide it.

make it so there is a rail on top of the car and strip down the inside so you can fit a rail inside also.

build a steep jump with a short gap after it, then place the car pretty high, so its kind of a step-up, then the riders can hit the jump, make a 180 and then just turn on on the other side of the car where a small landing hill is prepared.

the jump is built so that you land on the car pretty soft and then you just use the momentum of the jump to reach the landing hill

i cant describe it very good, but the thing i mean is often seen in bmx/dirtbike vids, where they just tap something and then go for another 180.

take out the doors and gut the inside and take out the bar in the middlethe separates the doors and the make it a box inside(like the gondola at snow bird) and put a rail on top(like the smith limmo) then you can have two features in one

Stand that shit up on end, take off the tires, and cover the bottom with some sorta clear lexan or something, and make it a dope wallride, where you can see the bottom. orrr, lay it on it's side, and make it a trap box, with wall rides on the side, so it's a pretty dope multi feature.

it would be way to small inside to do that. even a van is preeety small because You would want it high enough for tall people to get through while standing up on their skis. but I like the idea.  Stick it in the side of your pipe so people have to go over it.  Or just make it a jib feature that is just on its own.  But What type of subaru is it.  station wagon or sedan? I think a box or rail that starts infront of the car and goes up past the windsheald like an up box to gap over the rest of the car would be cool or a flat box along the top of the station wagon to gap over the hood would be a good idea.

Lexan the entire top. entirely. Then keep the seats in it and make it a judginb booth. That'd be dope too.

Orrr. leaxn the entire top and put the rear bumper in the snow and make it like a vertical box wallride/jib.

build a gap over the car widthwise and a trap rail going the other way. Don't make the gap stupidly small though. Make the jump big enough so sombody could jump over a skiier sliding the rail at the same time

if you weld mounts to it so you could put in different features when you want that would be pretty cool. we are doing the same thing with a volvo wagon, since its a wagon i was thinking of making a pretty steep quarter pipe type jump out of wood with astro turf on it so it can slide good if its not totally covered with snow, then mounting a box trash can or some jib thing on top so you stall it. then we would cover the whole car with lexan or something slippery so you stall then jib down the front of the car. then we would make mounts for a box/rail to go the whole distance.

buri it a little after the lip of a jump so that you cant see it before you go off. that way if gapers dont jump enough they run the fuck into a car

reinforce the roof  and cover it with any box stuff and have people jump over th hood onto it, so they can press it or what ever. like a 180 to nose press to 360 out that would be dope.

for those people who say sell the car this is a sponsorship thing for suburu so we cant sell it or rip it apart so it is unreconizable. its a legasy and yeah we wanna make it really cool so keep the ideas comming. i thought it would be cool to integrate a roof rack or roof box some how but i dont really know how so keep the ideas comming. also do you think it would be cool to pimp the car out with monitors and shit adn underglows/other crazy lights?

Set it up verticle on its back bumper and make it so you could ride up the roof and stall on the top, maybe weld a sheet of metal to the undercarriage and use that as a wallride or something. unfortunatly what is likely the best idea is still a rail, but if you do that have it follow the roof line so it would be like a double kink just to make it more amusng.

If the park is still open for night riding, then yeah some lights would be sick as hell. The box idea on the roof, if you do it, is best if it's like an actual box and not a topsheet placed on the roof. The roof bends and the sunken screws holding the topsheet in will come out just enough to create some very, very deep core shots.

You should make it into a stall with rail options. Or just put it in the park with some lips onto it and let the skiers/boarders do what they will with it.

this is so obvious I cant believe there's even a thread about it, make an impossibly hard rail so that everyone who tries falls on the car. You dont see enough of that in the typical car jibs cuz they use boring flat shit, make like an 8 kink rollercoaster single barrel with a quarter pipe type end so that even if they somehow get to the end they're fucked. wow that just totally inspired me, make it like a box that is slanted up so that you go up it and kind do fancy shit on it then come back down, like when skateboarders do shit on banks!
