Contents
Steps
- Get some friends to help you. You will need plenty of help especially for transportation of materials, plus you can get the job done a lot quicker. And once it's finished you will have a lot more fun using your new creation with friends.
- Round up many logs/pieces of wood that are sturdy and strong. Types of wood you can use:
- Oak
- Ash
- Hickory
- Maple
- Grab your shovel and start to dig.
- Put the dirt on top of the logs and compact it.
- Wet the dirt a little bit then let it dry.
- Push your bike up the jump to make sure it's strong enough to jump.
- Get some speed and hit it.
Tips
- It's best to build after it's rained, so the dirt is soft to dig up and be sure the wood is dry!
- It helps if the logs aren't square
Warnings
- Creek jumps can be unpredictable, so be careful.
- Wear proper safety gear (Helmet, knee pads etc..)
