The dimensions on mine are completely different.
(LxWxH)
Drop-in Deck: 4'x4'x4'
Drop-In Ramp: 7'x4'x4'
In-Run: 8'x4'x4"
Kicker: 4'x4'x1.5'
The rail is 1/4" PVC Pipe, 3" diameter, 10' in length. I will be adding a 5' piece to give it a total of 15'.
I used three layers of snow fence for the surface and simply wet it for riding. The day was windy so it was slower than normal. When it snowed it was extremely fast.I'm a snollerblader.

yea my dimensions are f*cked haha, i shouldve took my time and found blueprints like posted above.
here are mine, all the widths are standard plywood size, i didnt measure.
Drop in Deck - 4ft 6" high
Drop in Ramp - 8ft long
In Run - 4ft
Kicker - 1ft 11" long and only 10" high
the kicker def needs modding. I might start over this summer

The three layers are interlaced so that there is no surface area of the plywood showing. This way when you wet it there is no absorption into the wood so your boards will flow over 100% snow fence surface area for maximum performance.
I will be living back east this summer with tons of time on my 2 1/2 month vacation. So, if you need help I could come down and work with you on it. I'd be so down for a backyard jib session.I'm a snollerblader.

Sorry, this was the first video I created when I moved out here to Colorado and there were issues with music and licensing. If you PM me I can give you my email address and we can discuss it further if you are looking to build something.I'm a snollerblader.
