so i wanna build a battleship type box for my yard just for some variety im thinking i would have each section of it be around 4 feet long and maybe like 3 feet tall at the highest, ive got about 30 feet of space between the bottom of my drop in and the fence so i dont think i could go much longer then this, does anyone have any ideas for the angle i should have the up and down parts meet the flat part at so that it wont be too steep but will still be fun?
 
i would reccomend 15 degree angles. if you want a gnarly kink you could go up to 20-25 and if you want a mellow kink i would go no lower than 10.
 
yeah its gunna be short no matter what i do i dont have the space to work with but ill post some pics of it when its done
 
heres a pic of the one i built (the ground is uneven, so the middle section looks messed up)

i dont know the angles, but 15 deg. sounds pretty good.

the ony thing is 4 ft sections sounds really short.

like, REALLY short.
 
fail.

so did you build all those seperately then and then you just them together? Thats tight, that way you could make like different variations with the different pieces
 
yeah, ive used it as a flat down, a-frame, battleship, up flat, and i have a 10 ft kicker rail thats about the same height as the lowest part, and the highest part of the kicker is about 4 inches lower than the highest of the flat, so ive done kicker gap to flat, kicker gap to flat down, and then battleship to kicker. its pretty fun.. still havent gotten bored of it yet
