Hey Everyone!

Went to my first cable park last winter and it was an absolute blast. So much so that it has driven me to want to build my own kicker. From what little I've read so far, it definitely seems do-able, but I wanted to get some advice from anyone out there that has a good handle on it.

Here's some of the things to consider:
- First and foremost, we are able to build it, we just need some suggestions on dimensions!
- We ride in salt water
- This most likely won't be a permanent placement kicker. We'll need to move it in and out of the water periodically because we ride in a bay (not everyone shares our love to wakeboard)
- Suggestions on the incline (parabolic, straight incline, etc.)

There very well may be a whole bunch of things I am not considering, but any/all of your help would be greatly appreciated. At the end, hopefully I can post a picture of the completed project.

Thanks all!

I'd like to think that someone on the wakeboarder.com forum has built a kicker before.

Just need some quick tips!
