I know that there are a lot of threads about this, but I just finished building my drop in in my backyard, and it's kinda hard to place in the dirt.

Here's a couple pictures:

Any tips on placing it in the dirt?
 
sick setup; smooth kicker! you're crafty with wood!
some points i think might be awkward; *kicker might be too sudden (^^ as mentioned)*do you want te hop on street? your rail is higher than the kicker (might be a deliberate decision, but just saying...)*also; don't put snowfence on your landing; put it on the drop-in, over the turf, and use turf or a tarp for landing (snowfence will hook around your skis when you land)*your rail seems kinda short
:)not breaking you down, just trying to help you out; refining a summer setup takes some trial and error; good luck, you're doing great!
 
thats sick but definitly make ur rail a little longer, if you short on pvc just cut it in half, i did that on mine and it works fine
 
i saw leave it as it is if it doesnt move so you could use that some time if you need to move it or get a dope idea down the road. trannys too quit tho
 
protip - Add ribs to the drop in section underneath the carpet, it creates less friction on your skis causing you to go faster. looks sick though.
 
no im talking about having ribs that will make actual dents in the carpet so your ski only comes in contact with the carpet in like 4 or 5 spots. i can find a pic if youd like?
 
sick pelle! me an bone stain will help ya out with that. we could also get a rail from jay's and that would be legit. good start though!
