what did you use as the surface?

Built this in year 10

There is some really nice work in this thread! Can't wait till spring comes and I can hit some sliders

i would of made it a bit wider

haha its so beginers etc can hit it aswell

That roof is definitely gonna be in the way if u wanna hit it..

Nice slider.. looks fun..

Am i looking at 2 houses

Need some help.
I'm helping to built our local System 2.0 a floating box. It will be around 90 cm high, slider surface 50cm.
At what angle to make walls?

It needs to be stable when floating
Wana use walls to wallride but at the same point dont wana make it too wide so it'll be hard to jump of the slider at the middle

^^^^ - not goona do that math but - base width will depend on what you use to float it with. once you know the b/w, you will then have your angles. If you are using barrels to float it, try mocking it up and taking measurements. If you are using marine foam, I would prolly do the base width at 120 to 150 cm. You might need to go wider depending on the size of the barrels, or how steep you want the walls, but if you use foam you can cut it to whatever size you need.

the wider the better for stability. 55 gal barrels are 24" in diameter so in your drawing the bottom dimension will at least 5-6'. 35 gallon barrels are smaller if that helps

also try to make sure that at least 2/3 of the total weight of the feature is below the midline.
this helps with stability, also

Nice one dude! whats the water depth?
You building any other shit to?

p.s. I wish the wind was more friendly here, we pretty much had a mad set of legit skinny sliders but now they are either rusting away or we have cut them up and hit them wakeskating haha.
