Our new floating slider

Well we actually set her afloat in June, what do you think? This thing took us about a month to build but so far its turned out to be well worth the time. This is the only floating slider I have hit and it is surprisingly stable.

colefooter-Hitting it took some getting used too , the only other slider I have hit was at TSR and this one felt quiet different. The ascent is abrupt but after repetition it is not to hard. we used 4 55 gallon drums to float it

WCR-It is made of wood, we painted it with a Wagner spray gun my friend had.

well now they are coming up. We have this thing stuffed back in his cove we swim it out every time we are ready to hit it and so far we have had no problems . The first time we hit it lake patrol came by and had no idea what it was , they thought it was realy cool.
