Building a kicker?

Big shovels and smaller ones/shapers at the end for medium/small jumps.For bigger ones (If you dont have a big crew) cats/snowblowers will work better with shovels at the end.
 
Salt. Shit works wonders when you are dealing with snow that doesn't wanna pack well. also, I've found that if you can kind of cut big chunks or blocks with a shovel and then stack them, the jump will take shape better and faster. Then all you have to do is put some finishing touches on it and allow it to set, then give er'.

have fun.
 
Guys. His name is Saskskierftw...... Clearly, he's from my neighboring province Saskatchewan. Ok this is like me asking how to drop a cliff.... Clearly, there aren't any cliffs in Manitoba to be dropped, as there aren't any hills/valleys in Saskatchewan big enough, to support a kicker.....

 
just make sure you build it so the landing is flat ice

if its too steep and soft then it will be difficult to set your stance for the landing and the pow will make it hard to evenly distribute your weight.
 
you need to give us more details on the type of jump, type of snow, number of people, size of jump and then we can give u much more help.
 
^^^^^. A nice floaty 30 footer that could be built by 3-4 guys in about 4 hours of build time. That would be ideal, but I'm clueless as to how long it would take to build. What're te best conditions to build in? When it's dry and light or wet and heavy?
 
Use tooth picks to add stability to the jump. Also use those shovels that they sell in the walmart kids toys area. Also dig down for a long time until you need help getting out. It doesn't help it's just funny.
 
Snow, any type of shovel, flat ish ones are easier, snowmobile, a machine, a hill or some source of gaining or getting speed, and yea
 
This. I usually try to make sure the landing is uphill.

Here's an example-
