well after my dad used alot of the dirt from my landing to level out a place beside the house that we were building onto, well i was pretty pissed at first casue it took me forever to get my landing so big and nice w/ a big safety deck on it and then he took it, but what am i gonna say its his land his dirt....

so since my landing was so small i needed new means of building it up so i decided to put my ramp in the ground that way i wouldnt need as tall a landing, the way i thought i could jsut cut a long runway knee deep in the ground and use what dirt i dug out plus the dirt i had left from what was once a big huge landing and build a new landing with a long safety and plenty wide

here it is i still have some dirt left and the runway still has section that about 15 more yard of dirt can come out so ive still got 20+ sq yards of dirt left over so the landing will be taller and the safety wont wont down in the back any but i was ready to ride and test it out

dude i hope your joking you asked the exact same "build that yourself" a long time ago lol..... you were joking right because ive told how i built it and stuff in other threads in this section and you posted in them too

yes i built it myself for those of you who havent seen it before

and josh you should have seen me using it as a high jump before i mellowed out the take off when we were using it as just a table, i was going about the same height jsut off the dirt hit it was alomst striaght up and second gear it felt like hitting a wall

Posted by: ohsobad_chevy

You should hit that ramp on that utility, make sure you get it on video!! HAHAHAHA

well it was way to mellow and not quite tall enough so i took a little bit off teh safety and used the other i had and its now 2 feet taller and much steeper, and works freaking perfect, other than it got a little narrow at the top but you never land up there anyways its around 7 feet high now instead of 5 and dont forget my ramp in down in the ground a foot so the landings are much smoother now i turned my compression down 12 clicks and i still dont bottom so i think i got this shape perfect

blue line = new shape
yellow = old shape

ill be using all that dirt left at the back behind the blue line to make it wider. plus i have a bunch of other dirt and i have to dig a new hole for a cattle guard so ill have that dirt too. hoefully i can have it 10 feet wide at teh top right now its only 6 at the very top
