My Backyard Rail Jam (First Pics of Construction)

K-wood Kid

Specs.
Start pool is 40ft long, 16ft wide, and 2ft deep currently filling up.
Landing pool is 48ft long, 16ft wide, and 3ft deep.
Gap between the two is 20 feet and will be filled with hay bales and hopefully some old beat up mattresses.
We are expecting to be able to hit it on Wednesday so expect videos and stories.

key, yea we have an 18 ft flat bar at the moment, but hopefully we will build an a frame and a wall ride eventually.
sooner dud, yes, but the bottom one is telephone so it won't shock you and I doubt anyone will reach it.
Brit Rider, We had a blow out on the starting pool this morning, but it helped us realize how much force we were really dealing with. I'm about to go get some 4 by 4's and do some rebuilding.
Chad H, Yup, grinch winch.

please reinforce those pools... you are seriously under estimating the power and force of water even with your blowout.. great idea tho. we have one in the works for mine as well.
