Just got it this morning. Tried 3 backrolls and 2 r2rs and only landed one pretty sketch.

cut it in half and you'd have a decent ramp

LOL, I'm thinking I might throw some weight in it to sink the end a bit and lower the steepness. I think it's a little more difficult behind the boat then it would be on a cable. The springiness of the cable would make the jump a little more controllable. Definitely too steep for me to hit on a wakeskate.

I will get a video soon. Just didn't have an extra person to shoot when I tried it out this morning. Even though the person that built it had it for at least a couple years I think I'm the first person to hit it.

I think it's about 5 foot tall and the incline is 8 foot.

Wonder if I should get people to sign a waiver before I let them hit it?

Hit it 6 times right after putting in the lake. Was determined to stick a roll before quiting. Took 5 tries. The first hit I just jumped it dialing the boat speed. The kickers are my favorite thing at the cable, so I wasn't too scared.

Shortly after I got this the lake level dropped to where I couldn't get my boat out. We finally just started getting tons of rain in the last two weeks. Pretty sure I can get the boat out now. So probably get some footage soon. Last April was the forth April since the 1890's that Orlando recorded zero rain.

I am probably going to sink the front of the ramp about 8-10". So when I post a video it's likely not going to be as radical as it is now. The flotation tubes all were leaking and filling with water so I'm messing with them right now.
