good start,

my first ramp was a piece of wood on a log. lol

Buddy you should have put a curve in that thing. They are much easier to control then. This is mine.

Its looks good man, it will be alot of fun. Also nice choice of drill selection with the Mil. Looks like the Li-Ion 28V, I got 2 very nice.

nice ramp!! ya the curve in the ramp would give u a bit more air would it not larsenracing?

 

[Double-O-Zilch]

I agree. Put a little curve in there next time. You definetly get alot more air at less speed. My first ramp was a piece of wood on a log too Crash! :cheers:

my first ramp was a snowbank............second was another snowbank,(it so happens i bought my truck in febuary) and then one day the snowblower dude left just the right bank (had a sweet curve to it from the auger) and actually did a backflip....... wish i had a vid of that.......😛eace:

looks good a curve in the ramp is a good idea!

Yes, the curve in the ramp helps gain air expecially at low speed. Also, the big thing with the curve is you gain alot more control expecialy in the air as your suspension doesn't have to rebound near as far or as hard.

 

[ShOrTaY]

Yeah, I just wanted to make a quick one.
I've drawn up the designs for a curved one, trying to make it adjustable and compactable...
