| here are some pics of my slider and kicker. the slider is 20' long now and i will be adding another 14' with a lip off of it soon. i was thinking a 4'x20' funbox that is 18" off the water. anyone have anything like this. any other suggestions? |

those are some sick sliders. i would say a box would be real cool, or a Huge A-Frame. a tight idea...... a towable slider. put a picnic table on a row boat or some foam blocks and tow it that would be amazing

Why build one when your neighbors have docks and if there is a boat ramp the city normally builds a nice one not the best but it's fun _________________ RiDe On KeeP BreaKin |

ryanf is correct. A fun box is just a big box. a big 3 dimensional rectangle. You may have a kicker that gets you up there easier but that is a kicker that leads to a fun box. The kicker is not part of the funbox _________________
