Summer setup build withlittle1337
How long did it take you to build?
What kind of materials did you use?
Do you like the way it turned out?
Anything you would have done differently?
“Yeah I’m super happy with how it turned out.
Have you learned any new tricks?
Got anything currently in the works?
“Yeah I just finished an edit today actually and posted it.
The edit pretty much progresses with how I progressed if that makes sense.
Any advice to people thinking about building their own summer setups?
“My advice is to get as much free stuff as possible.
So it cost nothing.
Just better in every way.
We used ply 2x4’s, and 2’x6’s.
“Advice to other people.
Also double-check you do your research into how you want to build it.
There’s heaps of threads and vids on NS that help heaps.
You don’t want to build it and then decide you’d have done it a different way.”

Some more blading withFruitBootPro.
If nothing else, that sounds like a friggin name you’re free to trust.
How long have you been blading and what got you into it?
“I’ve been blading since fall of 2018, so about a year and a half.
The rest is history.”
Do your practice any of your skiing tricks/have you notice an improvement in your skiing?
“To NSers on the fence: Do it.
Lumber at the local store was expensive and it cost around $250 with the second layer of ply.
Couldn’t find anything useful for free around here at the time.
Eventually wanted to build more, and my driveway kind of sucks anyway.
Decided to build a full mini.
Total cost was around $625.
It took a good chunk of 3 days with a friend helping me.
I really just needed a project to keep from being bored and going insane.
After debating the cost for a while I just decided to do it.
Stopped drinking, borrowed a friends car, and drove to home depot to stock up.
We made the journey safely, and the ramp got built.
It’s currently snowing but otherwise I’ve been skating every day.
It took a while to figure out how to make the ramp fit the way I wanted it.
Got a full 8' wide, 8' flat bottom, and good sized decks.
Hoping to keep learning and having fun.
Regardless it was a good experience, and something to get my brain fired up.
If you’re thinking about building one get sendy and do it!
How sick is this friggin thing?
For $70 bucks?
Way to go Stu!
Actually that isn’t even true, where the hell are you Skiierman?
CAN YOU HEAR ME?!?!?!?
Hope you’re all doing well out there!
Now go outside and build something!
