you dont need to worry about height as much as you need to worry about the angle, dont make it too steep or it wont be fun

KirbyJosh, agreed....make it so you dont have to be really concentrated on your balance while on it, so you might want to make it more of a mellow incline

bobby211, I'd suggest angles in between 12-14°. ours is 14,7° and a little to steep. but once again it's all personal choice...
