i am thinking about making a slider and i have a few questions
1. what type of rail should it be (a-frame or flatbar)
2. how long should it be
3. what should i use for top material (pvc, trex, ect.)
4. should i sink it into the ground or float it
5. if i sink it can i easily take it back out or if i float it what would be the best way
this will be the first slider that i hit as well as the first that i have built so it has to be pretty simple. any help is appreciated. thanks

Id do a flat bar at first.... sunk in... go over to wakeskating.com and check out the plans and whatnot of the slider Nick told how to build.... very simple and very rad...

Hey if i was you i would just build a falt rail at firts, that is what i started with and then went bigger, A lot of people think you need PVC on the top of rail but i dont use anything just would before you hit it get it wet works just as good.
