Tell me what ya think, we have a few more rails were ganna put it and swap around too, really stoked to be able to practice this summer. Also, I know the build a jib cult it kinda slow or dead, so if anyone needs any tips on any aspect of your setup I think I can help.
 
Nice man! Im in the process of building one just like that, Im just not sure where to start with the drop in.. Got any suggestions? How did you stabilize?
 
Speed is absolutely perfect, even pretty usable without water.

In terms of the drop in...ours is 4ft high, but we are also on a bit of a hill so that helps, if your on flat I would suggest 6-8ft high drop in. In terms of stabilization, 1x2's are your friend. Just do cross braces with those and it should be rock solid.
 
View attachment 643694okay so heres my set up, for the first few days it worked great, then it started slowing down. im going to put some orange fencing over it, but do you see anything that may be wrong that im missing?
 
Bro your image is too small put another one up, from what i see it looks pretty legit. Does it have a smooth take off? because you didnt add any other slants
 
I can't really see with such a small picture, but you want to make your transitions as smooth as possible, that means multiple 2x4's or 2x6s (whatever you use) to make the curve...we used 4 different ones to make our tranny and it is smooth as butter. This helps keep speed.
 
my take off and transition are all one peice, we made a hinge in between the drop in and the tranny so we can take it apart completley into 3 peices. however we lose alot of speed so i need to add a curve to the transition
