I want a PVC pipe rail about ten to 15 feet long but i dont know how to place it into the water?? Do i use pols and dig it in the ground or do i try and make it a floating one?? Or is there another way to make a floating rail such as a canoe or sumthin?

You can float it with styro foam or barrols .I used styro foam for my kicker.Or you can make it like a cutting hoarse like you see at construction sites.and slap some pvc on the top of it.Yes you can slide a conoe just flip it upside down.If you mean build a slider in the conoe it would prabably flip over.

Put bricks on a bungie cord and set them on the bottom.My wakeskate slider doesnt move much at all.

It depends on where you are doing it. If you can make it so you can put it in the ground but also remove it in the same day with ease then the sheriff can't take it.

Sim - Got any tips on how to put a slider into the ground easily so that you can remove it later that day? I have been trying to figure this out for a while now and nothing seems to be easily installed & removed & still sturdy.

pales in the ground full of concrete with a steel square in the middle an just drop the 4X4 into all the pales and there al go

paint the pales pink so you can see them in the water

couple questions on that.....

1) how do you keep the square in th pale from filling up w/ sand (we have a sand bottom)

2) how do you relocate the pales next time you put the slider in?

3) Is this a proven method?
