|

Thinking of building a pipe kicker, just wondering if anyone had any ideas about angle of the kicker, what sort of angle is good without being too steep?? _________________ Wide-A-Wake Board Sports

we have worked out not to go much steeper than 20 degrees for kicker up ramps, unless its for cable. Anything steeper will be too hard to ride at 22-23 mph. _________________ www.wake.com.au |
