Ideas for DIY Pipe jam in UK

So hears the setup, we got a small hill (bout 6ft tall but 40 degree gradient), one newly built bungee chord (by greg), and a tonne of pipes that they did not at all steal from an industrial recycle bin.

We are doing all this on our university campus (where the little hill is)

and have a little bit of old carpet, and a workshop in one of the faculties that we can use for building the pipe supports.

Anyone done something like this before? If you have, how did you make your pipe support and what kinda features did you make using pipes? Also what do people think of a double barrel pipe?
 
Sorry bro, I am always told to call em pipes instead of jibs or the other way round.. seems everyone calls them something different hahah!

Cheers for the thread link, some decent setups on there, how do i move this over to that thread?

It took me multiple reads of this to realize you weren't attempting a diy dry halfpipe....

I only read the op once and thought that until i read this and then had to read the op again.

a dry half pipe sounds like all sorts of problems. I kind of want to see one.
 
Was picturing a dig your own halfpipe contest in the UK somewhere.

Can build all different kinds of tube rails. Depending on how thick you might be able to just throw it on the ground and get weird.

You can do a lot of things with tube. You can make a ton of different rails, you can use it as coping on wallrides, use it on boxes if it's smaller.

If you do some work are you going to be able to use this stuff in the future? If not I wouldn't do too much. That said if you know somebody who can weld throwing some legs and feet on a tube wouldn't be very hard.

Look at different mountains and see what they have, what do you like to hit? What do your friends like to hit? What features suck? What features are awesome?

Just get an idea, and then go for it. Maybe design some stuff in sketchup first if you're going to do wild things.
