| okay, me and my friend are making some trails in my back field. we have a very big supply of dirt, so that is not the issue. we arent sure how to make the jumps really. we are both starting out, and are wondering how to make a good rythm section. we are only looking for 3-4 foot jumps (being that we are both beginners) and we are going to make 2 or 3 doubles. pictures, or how-to's would be very much appreciated. we are going to start making the trails tomorrow. thanks in advance :-D 06'fit AM  T1flatlander = bike part Guru | |

| mound up dirt, if its dry, soak it, and pack it, rugs work really good fro packing. i odnt really know if theres ONE right way, whenever i made, i just piled up dirt, and did all the stuff i said. its kinda a trial and error kinda thing. just biuld the jump till its a good size for you...

| yeah, thats what we planned on doing, we only have like 100x50 feet of space to build trails, because its about 50feet away from my atvflat track, so its at like a 35degree angle, and to be honest, im not that good of a rider, i can only hop like 2 feet maybe 2.5 if im lucky. if anybody has pictures of the process of making jumps that would be highly appreciated. 06'fit AM T1flatlander = bike part Guru | |

| making jumps is so easy. its exactly how you would expect to make them it just takes fucking forever, buts its not really difficult. You dig a big hole, then build a jump shaped ramp thing, then build a lip on it. Keep it watered the whole time and occasionaly pack it down.At the end, really really pack it down and make shure the lip is like you want it. Do the same thing for landings , but just no lip. | |

| why do you need more? you know what trails look like make mounds of dirt that look like them and make them a bit wet. pack them in and form a lip. change anything you dont like. | |
