A well built 22ft super pipe is a hard thing to find. John Melville takes us through the process of building a half pipe for some of the worlds best riders to enjoy! Includes some of NZ's biggest halfpipe riding ever seen.
@ktutty Because civilian GPS systems are only accurate to ±10m. That is good enough for navigation but is not good enough for building something like this. Generally the halfpipes are in the same place in resorts. I know in Tignes France the halfpipe is carved into the mountain and can be seen all year round they then stack it with snow and build the walls higher.
That looks easy to do its all down to the G cutter really, but why not use GPS linked to the steering to get a straight line and then you could even say that the half pipe is in the exact same position and shape every single year.
