so I've decided to make a backyard run. I've gotten some good ideas, but i wanted to know which one would work best. My friend got that warning fence they use at ski resorts (it's orange and diamond pattern), and laid it out, then put some water on it and it works fairly well. The other method I've heard of the turf carpet run, but I've never actually tried that. Does anyone have any input?

I thought about dendix, but it's impossible to find and apparently pretty expensive.
Thanks for the input guys!

Artificial turf, water, and dish soap.

how much do i put on there? a whole bottle?

Grimdog

Uhhhhhhh it's probrbly going to depend on how big the ramp is. I'm not sure what the optimal volume per square foot would be to minimize friction.

That seems like lot of money for basically some tarps and indoor/outdoor carpet.

So don't buy it and build your own. It's just an example not an endorsement.
