i want to build an above ground wakeskate pool with rail in the middle and another pool on the other side but i have a few questions. does anyone have any plans for this? can this work, is it a good idea? how would i get started, should i just run and acid drop in and then let the rope pull me or what? i wan to do this but im not sure if it can work so any advice would be appreciated.

Ctipping, That is the rail i would like to make. With the same kinks.

derek grassman and kevin henshaw helped build it, they did anything and everything to it, gapping it and even gappying to the bottom...

sorry if it sounds crazy but we put a small upramp at the begging, cause the water would get so low, it was like 4 ft long, and not a steep angle...

yeah, they wakeboard, but it's more of a wakeskate-type rail though and if you'll notice, this thread is about a wakeskate pool.
