2FST4U Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Just incase anyone was thinking of building something to practice and mess about on i've just finshed this. Thought it might be a good start if you aren't sure where to start. It's about 27 inches high and i will add a few things as i go along.

2FST4U Posted August 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 I just took it from an industrial estate. They only have to dump them. It's not to bad but i'm going to get some 2x1 from work tomorrow to brace it all. I just need to learn how to get up it now. Nice height for doing drop offs without getting hurt if you come off. Haven't ridden it in the dry yet so it should be easier to get up without slipping.Thanks for the interest. Think i need to find some local riders to learn quicker.

2FST4U Posted August 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2009 Surely you could use that concrete block wall in your course as well. Looks like a nice selection though. I've got a beach over the road full of big rocks so i don't need to build anything to big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulboy Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 (edited) Just a little something that me and a couple friends put together. It has been changed numerous times but this is how it is at the moment.http://i955.photobucket.com/albums/ae38/ak...gg/IMAG0023.jpghttp://i955.photobucket.com/albums/ae38/ak...gg/IMAG0024.jpg Edited August 3, 2009 by paulboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jitters Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 Yup, changed it again today, now it looks like this:AdamSuperior! Although I couldn't ride a fraction of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulboy Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 I just wish i had more space to do something like that. . Only got the small area in the photos to play with but i suppose having it right outside the backdoor is a bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
