How to make good kicker

[snakerton]

sorry if repost.

So I see all theses urban edits with perfect jumps to and I dont understand how they make them so perfect. Obviously not all of them use snowcats. How do they do it?

 

[AnthonyWalsh]

i dont know if any of them use snowcats...

fill bins with snow, drop bins where you want kicker, shape kicker out of bin snow

 

[Baloo]

put salt on it so it doesn't get messed up.

The last guy who made his own kicker with bin snow broke his ankles

when they make them look really clean with perfectly straight sidewalls they start with a much bigger pile of snow, pack it down a ton, then use a shovel to shape the sides. use a lot more snow than you think you need, that way you can pack it down super tight.

I always wondered the same thing, every jump ive made sucks

[KillaSteeze]

lots of snow, a shovel, then maybe salt after

 

[Seany.n]

Please show me an urban jump made by a snowcat

 

[Noha]

Get off your lazy ass and use a shovel

This, make blocks if you want a huge/bigger jump, especially with powder snow.you can pour water on and wait for it to freeze in cold conditions or put salt, especially the salt they use in streets, to melt then re-freeze the lip. Hope that helps. Just try it out and you'll do fine!

 

[james6345789]

that's pretty badass!

 

[whoa-dere]

jizz on it, makes it extra nice

 

[Njens.]

Shut up Web

 

[snakerton]

i meant I've seen kickers made with a cat. i didnt mean they were urban. sorry for the confusion

 

[stupendous-man]

There was one built by a cat in Come Find Us too. I think it was next to the lodge at big sky, did you built that one?

Rope line the edges and cut with shaping tools.

 

[CrotchKiller]

for an urban lip? haha
