has anyone built a flat box or flat rail that has adjustable leg heights? Ive been looking at this pond next to my house for awhile but the water level raises and falls a lot. would this be possible?
on a side note this pond has some crap in it how dirty of a pond would you guys winch in? ill take some pics when it stops raining.

i've ridden in some questionable water, but as it warms up it gets more dangerous. water mocs, amoeba, or what have you. im not sure how to go about it but there is a way to test the water and see what's in it before you ingest some up your nose or mouth, or other inlet.

We never had a problem with the water quality. And I have seen people skate way shittier water, than I would ever skate in. Like the old Anderson Gap!

ive been in some really crappy stuff... im not too worried about how gross it is when the water temp is low... but once spring is over and the water feels like a hot tub then i try to stay clear... amoebas are no joke
