ya this is a sweet guid but on guid 3 you could put ideas on how to build frames for jumps and drops

okay thanks for that, i probably will soon.

but if a mod or someone with the powers please delete all the people who felt it nessasary to quote the entire thing and say "sick" please shorten it or something? or if you did that edit your post please Big Grin .

hey! i just thought i would pos t something

if you are using fallen trees, chances arem that bugs and stuff have laid eggs in them of have gotten into them, and that they have collteted mositure and may rot faster. what i would suggest, it to take a 2 handled skinner, and peel the bark, sp the bug dont hide under it and eat it...if you think that it ruins the naturalness of ur traill, maybe just skin the sides that people cant see I.e the top( were the rungs are) the bottom, the side so that it dosent rot faster...this is my personal opinion and ones that most of my family members (uncles) have given me... think its a good idea, let me kno...p.s i have my trai; pics in my profile, in my albums,or whatever, you can look at my traisl( so far) and notice i skineed them

also, what i do it the treese in between my drop, i am going to put like a chain, and on out property is a no tresspassing sign, so if kids try to givr over it, with out our permission, they will get sclose lined Razz
