Hey guys, this will be the first trail my friends and I have built and we only have the first feature so far. Tell me what you think of it and what I could do to improve the other features of the trail.

Sorry for the bad pictures, all I had with me was my phone and I couldn't get the whole thing in one picture without a whole bunch of trees in the way.

Put a few supports under the end ladder so it dosn't bounce or twist when some one lands hard. Looks awsome and keep building!!

I'm a big guy and a hack. Ladders and such that move under you scare the crap outa me! : also if you guys find it too slippery put chicken wire on it for traction.

Ya, I like to try and build things pretty solid, there are still a couple more supports that need to go in before I ride it. I'm hoping it won't be too slippery because it's all hand-split cedar that has a lot of rough edges.

maybe you guys could try some suggestions instead of putting the guy down. like how about "use thicker wood, or how about 2x4's or something similar" see its not that hard. try it.Big Grin
