Offical Summer Set-up Thread!

[Schoening]

no it don't. well at least mine didn't.

also im not gunna hit a summer setup this year like i have in the past. urban is sooo much more fun

 

[RMUDEEP]

if you do not feel like building a setup,and dont want to truck snow, then just session your ice rink. Get friendly with the zamboni guys and they'll dump snow wherever you want/need it to get decent speed for your rail.

I don't remember but I have posted it a couple times already so check this thread or the one by dweezileast

 

[Beamer12]

MAKE THIS A STICKY!

 

[Caledon-skier]

i might make one

 

[Caledon-skier]

theyre so sick

 

[III]

what kind of rail do you need the LEAST amount of speed for?

 

[williams]

PVC gets slow after a lot of use. all you gotta do is spin it so theres a fresh surface and remount it.

 

[dweezileast]

STICKY!

the rollercoaster cost us probably $30 in all.

$25 for pvc,

$5 for nails, screws, ductape for repairing the power cord that snowcase decided to cut through with the circular saw.

Hate to bump a thread, but how thick should the wood for the drop in be?

 

[Snowcase]

yea I almost met my maker that time but damn that was alot of sparks kinda cool, kinda scary.

 

[Schoening]

believe me, this kid knows what hes talking about! he blades on his pvc day after day

 

[dweezileast]

you can use a sheet of plywood, just stick some 2x4's under it, bracing against the ground to take some of the weight off.

 

[pat-rickdaigle]

don't spend money people. go to your local junkyards, grab some tires and step onto urban rails. DUH.

[dweezileast]

[robbieA]

ha that was sick...i think im gunna try that considering we tried to have a summer session today and it ended in disaster

 

[Aclique_Clothing]

awwwwwwww i wish i could do that but my parents would proabably b like what the fuck r u doing? and i would have 2 use my own money

 

[winterkid33]

you guys have no idea ill get pics up in the next week. metal saw and walkie talkies are the cheapest way to get a rail. jea.

 

[pat-rickdaigle]

walkie talkies cost money, just step on fool.

 

[III]

not if you got all the equipment already.

 

[chewy15]

so ur saying go to a stair set and cut off the railing.. haha

 

[japie99]

People should post more pics of their set ups here!

 

[snoopy]

[skiRay]

[=nick=]

[SirFryanator]

[triebby]

[twinturboz9]

[TylerS]

[Snowcase]

It was the genious of dweezil. I just happend to be the lucky one that had wood and power tools to build it.

 

[Schoening]

urban = better.

 

[TheQuailman]

how wide and long is tht box?

 

[Holte]

Alrighty, time to bump this

 

[jKutcher]

this is a very sick thread. i am currently working on a 12 ft long flat box and my friend is giving me another 12 ft box. it is going to be super sick b/c we can change the set up a ton with two flats.

 

[ski_cartel]

really chicken wire, id done snow fence but not chicken wire, and to the guy that asked about wood chips no they dont work well but there better than grass which dosnt really work at all so i think you get the idea

 

[SN0WBOARDER]

thanks you are a kind soul

 

[blakroc]

Keep this alive boys or get a mod to sticky this ppl r already making 100 other summer set up threads

 

[dweezileast]

i agree with you 100%, but some people, myself included dont have alot of access to urban

 

[tanseygram54]

hmmm im workin on a rail right now ill post pictures later and ps stickey this shit

 

[tanseygram54]

 

[BkCountrySkrMO2]

how do you anchor the PVC to the 2x4?, so i need 50 feet of pvc to make that rail? Did it work well?

 

[BkCountrySkrMO2]

how do yo anchor the PVC to the 2x4?

 

[BkCountrySkrMO2]

if i wanted 2 pvc pipes next to each other for a rail, how wide should each pvc be? i was thinking 1 3/4 inches

 

[blakroc]

^ u already made a thread about both those things

 

[Snowcase]

I beleive it has already been stated quite a few times and if you really wanted to know you could look it up, either that or use common sense?

 

[BusyJohnSohn]

Sticky!!!

 

[D_Mezz]

i luv this thread....right now i have about a 12 ft pvc rail all built but its about 2 ft high so i think im gunna cut it up and make it more stable and about a foot shorter!! KEEP THIS THREAD ALIVE!!!!
