Yeah, that box does look fun.
Speaking of smoking, cigarettes are ****... the smell lingers on you for hours, and your lungs feel ****ed up.

All is true. Cigarettes are bad, no matter which way you spin it. Try to get rid of them things.

The thing breaks down into 7 pieces, it sets up in 20 minutes and tears down in 15 minutes.
Its all safe and in the garage by the end of the session.
As for the smoking thing, I have been smoking for 10 years, 15-25 y/o. So I do WANt to quite but Im just not ready yet.
PS>>>>IN Canada people are friendly and Kind, Most the neighbors stop by and ask questions and are really nice to us. They would rather see us riding bikes rather then breaking into their homes. Most of them drive by and wave and give us a smile. Its all good, and its only an eyesore for a couple hours.

I found an abandoned/somewhat hidden tennis court that I think I'm gonna set up a flybox or something in.

I'm late to the party here (hey, I've been on holiday, give me a break), but my first thought on seeing the photos was:
NICE!
Then I did wonder if the setup was mobile and came to the conclusion that it was. It wouldn't drag down the value of my house, but I could see where it might be a bit too tempting to the local kids who might use it unsupervised, and kill themselves. That would be bad for my insurance . But I'd also noticed the cones surrounding the setup and realised that someone was doing a pretty good job there of warning drivers. So, very nice, Jammer.
Did you make the setup yourself? Parents? Did you have plans, or freehand it?

wfin: notice the OP is in Calgary.
Canucks are used to driving around kids playing in the street, what with our street hockey culture and all that.
His ramp looks like it takes even less space than two teams of kids with two hockey goals.
Years ago, someone called in the cops to complain about my younger brother and his friends, who were playing hockey in our 8-house street, thereby "impeding traffic" and getting ticketed.
The judge laughed the ticket out of existence.

Yes Cones are good because there are a lot of stupid drivers in Canada. So we dont want some idiot to drive into it because Im sure there are some people who are that dumb.
Anyways Thanks for the comments, we are planning on a mini ramp in his back yard, we should be building that pretty soon, Ill post some pics once its done.

That's ridiculous!
At any rate, it's a great setup (or box) you've got there, and I'll be looking forward to seeing photos of the mini ramp. Your friend Jeff is good!
