Drop in hight

[i0z]

well i had a ramp off my deck that was 4ft wide and 12ft long for my drop in.....were re-doing my deck and my dad wont let me put it back on. I was wondering how high should i make the drop in tower(im making a new platform) because my deck was 6ft and it wasnt enough speed for summer skiing and i dont want to make it to high and have way to much speed

10ft would probably be good

10 ft is too high in my opinion, id make it like 7-8 so it will still be somewhat portable for winter use.

mine was 7ft and i had perfect speed, would of been good if my jump didn't break every 5 times i hit it.

 

[crunkasfuck]

depends on the angle of the ramp

 

[fillup]

if it worked with the height of the deck make it that height

well if you dont want to tall..go 7 or 8 but cut down the inrun so its steeper..just work with physics bassically

 

[i0z]

to go on the theme of this thread, what would be needed for a flat (actually flat, in my backyard) rail about one and a half feet off the ground?
