jared 0 Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 whats your method? we usually get some skis and use them as stakes and get some snowboards and build a wall between the skis. Then chuck snow behind it and trample it. Last time we tried a different method (spring time only) cutting out blocks of snow with shovels and building the jump kinda like its made out of oversized bricks. I have seen others just make a big pile of snow and cut the jump out of the pile later. Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 Using the skis and poles as a way to block the snow is the best way I know. PS jared that tremor could have caused some damage to the snow. Avies and tremors dont mix well. Link to post Share on other sites
enderzero 0 Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 Sounds like my normal method, minus the skis. I am sure they are nice for keeping the boards in place though. Link to post Share on other sites
zwelgen 0 Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 What do you do when its all sugary crap that doesnt hold together. You know the stuff that is basically round frozen ice, like in kakigori (that shaved ice with syrup)? I have been wondering about that. Yah I do the skis and/or boards standing up to make the edge then pile up snow behiend it. I havent made a hulluva lot in my life though hence the kakigori question Link to post Share on other sites

IM 0 Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 For any kicker, I bring a sack of freezing agent like the ones they use on a slalom course. Link to post Share on other sites
