a lake that big for a winch? You need a remote control boat to take the rope back. haha!

It's only 1300 ft long... I would love a 2.0.. and the ski rixen version I think would be even more practical!!(I hear it's a 1 person operation) We generally pull with a ski, 4 wheeler, or winch.

Thats so sick!
We dont have anywhere permanent, we have been winching random ponds and drops. Hopefully soon well be able to get some rails put in at some of our places.
Heres video of us getting busted for hitting a dam, turned out the cop has a malibu and is a wakeboarder! But he still made us stop since some lady called us in. DISCLAIMER- Were not the duck killers.

Ahhh that winch park is sooooo sick! You must have some serious motivation. We have been trying to build a kicker/rail/box/whatever for about 2 years! This pretty much is forcing to go out and build something sweet now!

By the way I really dig the wall and kicker you got going. How exactly deep is this "pond"?

if i had one of those at my disposal i might stop riding behind tha boat...nice chris...

(chrishopf) · (chrishopf) **Join Date: Sep 2007** 01-05-2009, 6:25 PM

Thanks guys..it really feels good to hear some positive feedback! I pretty much gave up about 3 months of boat riding to work/ride out here, then I tore my MCL/Meniscus off the big kicker so I havent been able to build anything new or ride it this winter. I have so many new slider ideas now and I cant wait until Spring!! The next addition will be a Transfer Box!

WakeViolater..Those look like some sick pool sessions!! I have always wanted to try something like that out!! Do those Rails just sit on an upsidedown T when they are in the pool? and are they stable?

Henry.. The pond averages about 3-5ft deep and is about 7 ft deep behind the big kicker! We used 16ft 4x4s for the top back posts of it.

Anybody else have any secret spots where they slide??

Our build is in progress, got a little bit of wood in, and working with the weather to finish it, it's going to be an epic park, give it a couple months, big things coming out of the south!

(joshbuzz) · (joshbuzz) **Join Date: Sep 2007** 01-05-2009, 7:37 PM

Sick spots Josh!

Stephan and Gabe are super cool guys to!

When we get some more stuff built I'll start posting vids, we have a couple huge land gaps that will blow your mind, and we have some pretty original rails planned so it should be fun to see home 09 plays out!

Hello. I'm new to this, it's my first comment. Here's some pics of me and my friend Logan Farris's escapades.....
This is our super secret land gap. Can't say much more than that.
