I have hit a slider and made it move, and my friend hit one and he moved a lot away from it and his board, does that count?

How did you build it? Can you post some pics, plans? I think that would be the stuff to ride and easy to make (as far as sliders go)

basicaly its a skateboarding funbox, with a pvc sheet over the top, tie it down on to 2 tubs, i think we might have to use 3 though, and then pull it behind the boat, they are probably the eazyest slider to build, aslong as you have some tubes handy.

Ok, my friend and I were thinking of using 2 tubes and then some pvc and plywood, but this probably wont happen till next year if at all.

I've hit one. Check out the towable funbox vid on the site. I ran straight into the thing the first time I hit it. Made for an entertaining crash.

Two tubes are plenty, plus if you put a third one in you wont be able the push it over and straddle the wake.
