AdrenalinRush4235 Posted July 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 mainly carpet but, when i get a bunch of people together were getting ice rink shavings............... we'll just pile it on the carpet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo Posted July 24, 2006 Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 It's pretty straightfoward, except on what carpet to use. Sand fill- google it. Probably the best to use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LTDSNOWBOARDER Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 I have 2 questons, my first is how steep of a hill do you need to carpet board, i have an 8 foot long bench and wanna be able to use it. My second queston is how long does the snow last if you get it from an ice rink, cus i wanna try it but i dont wanna waste my time if im going to get like 3 hits on my bench.

Stevo Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 how would you know? you didnt even ride it. sandfill is only an option if you got mad cash good point. IT probably works the best though, just from a common sense standpoint. It's plastic, so there's less friction. i don't know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 Just try and get the shortest strand carpet you can find. Pile snow on top of that so when it melts you at least still have something underneath it. If you're just going with carpet, which you can do, then depeding on the angle you have it at you might need to wet it down to get speed.
