A Jump With 1 Tonne of Dirt

[Sidney]

Hey guys


So tomorrow I'm getting a tonne of dirt delivered to my house to make a jump for my MSO.


Do you think a tonne is going to be enough to make a decent tabletop? It doesn't have to be massive I just want it to be fun, but still a bit of a challenge.


If anyone has any dirt jump pics that used about 1 tonne of dirt post em up here.


And YES I have searched for pics and have not found any.

mmm no its wont be enough for a table top maybe enuff for a small double. like this:

i have no clue how much 1 tonne of dirt is but sound like ALOT, lol. are u just gonna build the 1 table top or wat? i would think that it would be enough but depends on how big u are going to make it etc.

 

[Trashthumpy]

1 tonne of dirt is F&%K all, if ya dont no pascal why say it would be??? duhh

 

[Sidney]

Yeah I thought that's how much it would be.

I guess I'm getting 2 tonnes now lol

 

[Trashthumpy]

yeah 2 tonnes would be good 1 tonne for the up rampo and 1 tonne for the downie

You didnt make that jump did you. Doesnt look like you've got enough height to make it

 

[Sidney]

He would make it. Just go fast and compress the suspension

 

[Trashthumpy]

made it no worries man, exept the time when i left the fuel off......

 

[pegleg]

I think that you will need around 4 to make it worth jumping.
Once it is compacted even 4 tonne may be no where near enough. I have had 10 tonne of sand and dirt dumped on my front lawn to build a verander 4meters X 4meters and that would have just made a nice double about 1 meter high and 4 meters long.

 

[Sidney]

hahaha yeah I've done that once

 

[Flarry]

A tonne of dirt for your backyard?? Where will you get a run up and land? You'll need about 20 truck loads for a good table top.

You should make a wooden ramp and make the dirt you're getting a downy.

 

[Sidney]

Yes I want a ramp like a 50's ramp just stronger. I can't find one to buy.

 

[Trashthumpy]

iv got a 50 ramp......hint hint.....but if not try using a 22 0r 44 gallon drum on its side and pile dirt on that, uses way less dirt

 

[Sidney]

lol thrash ages ago I said I would buy yours and you said no. Wanna sell it?



On the idea of the drum yeah thats a good Idea I have a few few bricks I am going to deffinately use those.

 

[Trashthumpy]

oh then again i wont sell it its been sitting in the rain foe like a month....probaly kinda dangerous

 

[Sidney]

Well how much would you sell it for?

 

[Trashthumpy]

na i wont sell it its a death trap

 

[Sidney]

I'll replace all the wood!! Give me a price!!

 

[foolsp33d]

I'll replace all the wood!! Give me a price!!

Lmao, why replace the wood when it would be easier to just build one!!?!? go find some 44's, chep pallets, wheel burrow, shovel, hammer nails, fair few litres of recycled water and build ya jump man!!
