Ive got an above ground pool, and we're buying a new liner this year, so i thought id dig it out deeper underneath and make a water ramp. Any thoughts? My pool's an oval 15x30 ft. Im just worried i might go off funny and break my back on the sides of the pool, or straight up skim into the side.
 
its the kind of thing where i think how sick it would be to have a water ramp, and then i think how bad it would be if i went off the jump funny and taco'd my back on the side of the pool.
 
not gunna work, well it could with a small jump, but anything of size you need to have bublers to break the water up so you dont fuck yourself up landing, its easy enough to drive to them if you live semi close
 
no, i love this idea,

i will help you build this,

you can use astrotuff, and soap

remember kids.

k.

here is how you can do it in your own backyard.

It helps if you live close to a greenbelt so you can cut down big trees.

Good luck with that. Its a kick ass idea, but you'll probably die. Just go to lake placid for the water ramps. There's a camp there from june 16-21.
 
100'x100'?

That would be epic to have a water ramp. Probably also extrememly dangerous with such a small pool.
 
just imagine if the insurance adjent came by that would be one big add to the insurance if a tramp makes some places drop you haha i would love to see the adjents face
 
I just remembered a video i saw once of some dude with an astroturf jump hucking off his dock into a lake. I'm thinking about bringing my summer setup to a lake by my house now. It probably wouldn't work at all, but would be some pretty good entertainment for an afternoon anyway.
 
I tossed an up rail off my dock last year. Same old green carpet deal. I think you'd have a better time with a rail... toss a gap and have the rail in the pool, you can practice crazy spins on/ off. Fun as shit.
