As long as you build it sufficiently well it will work just fine.

I love the descriptions of the background objects, keeps everything clear.

Seriously, we should all be so lucky to have a setup like this at our houses.

I would love to see some pictures when you get things going

what are you using for the surface? That should work, It's just like an a frame that goes on dry ground. I hope your good enough at sliding to not fall off onto the ground

we decided to put it in the water right off teh point cause if u bust on the ground then its gonna hurt..you cann walk off that point about 20 feet and only be waist high in water so we'll still be able to get the angles. if we could get a good housing (sp?) for the camera then itd be crazy, i jus cant find one within a decent price range.

weve decided to change our original design. this one includes a wall ride also. this was drawn up in about 15 minutes so ignore the sloppy-ness please. comments on structure and basic design are appreciated.
(i realize that some things may be slightly out of proportion but like i said..i did this on very short notice.

15 feet doesnt seem like its nearly long enough to really do anything, esp at 22ish mph
