i was thinking of the most cost effective slider ever and i came up with this. Get a long piece of wood or like a bunch of 3"x 5" and attach them together and then all you have to do is like put carpet on it or something and you got a slider that wont scratch your board. And because its just a peice of wood it will float on its own. or add some foame to raise it a little. what do u thing? most cost effective slider?

Um....... I would go with lyno flooring if you are looking for the ghetto/redneck way for building it.

i would suggest for floating, ten gallon drums like the ones they use on the docks for fish scraps, i dont know your location but they float sick and you cna add weight and for balance you have to make it at least 5 feet wide so its a little stable i recently built a flat top 4 feet off the water, double 8 inch PVC and its a 7 foot wide base and it still shakes allot

Or better yet next time you see a floating log just try to ollie onto it. Let me know how that goes. You can't slide something below water and that's where it will end up once you touch it.

Another cheap way I saw is 2 tubes and an old canoe... Looked pretty ghetto.

I met a guy that would take the rubber roll over roof off of the top of a junk travel trailer or fifth wheel and throw it in the water. He said that it worked for his son, and his son was only ten. I cannot remember if they said whether or not anybody bigger had hit it. But probubly not.

also as soon as i hit it, it will sink so the rest of it whille rise. and as soon as i get half way there it will start to sink at the end of the slidder thus making the up and down of it
