I'd like to try that myself. Of course with a helmet and some jeans at the very minimum. |

The best part was where he rode the "wall" with no helmet, but then puts a helmet on in order to climb the ladder! I think You guys should definitely make a wall of death at MBV. Plenty of room at Franks airport. |

Screws! Not nails! Screws will not work themselves up out of the wood as the structure "works". Can you imagine what several thousand "proud" nails will do to a fallen rider? Ouch! Jack |

I think You guys should definitely make a wall of death at MBV. As organized as we tend to be, it should be ready for MB-X. |

the bottom where it angles up to the vertical sides definatly needs to be reinforced though. did you see how that little moped was breaking through at the bottom. took me a minute to figure out what that sound was. i thought for sure he was going to drop the front in one of those holes and face plant. and by the way. build it and i think it would be pretty hard to keep my 9 out of it... |

There's a better way, rather than build it up, dig it down! I'm sure Alex Prior could lay his hands on the necessary equipment. |

Hmmmm.... There's that glue, 3M makes it.. It holds the glass in skyscrapers. I'll bet that would hold the ply in place and wouldn't cause any nasty sharp things to stick out and it should hold even in high winds. Then again.. Hmmmm.. Welding might work well too.. Of course, I think that might make it difficult to build out of wood. Just thinking out loud here...

I keep going over the plans in my head..... One thing for sure, it needs a way to get in and out of it easier and it needs to double as a skateboard bowl.... |

that would be really cool. If I get some time I might start drawing something up. There needs to be like a trap door that swings in the side. so you could get different bikes/ go-karts / what ever in and out alot easyer. |

Hey No-Rice, just remember if you drop it on a Board Track they'll be pulling splinters out of your a$$ for a month! |

I've got the helmet to use while on the ladder. New12r, if only we had access to that many pallets. Dig a hole? I can get a backhoe. |
