building a private spot - Page 3 - Stunt Discussion

Rodman · 10-11-2008, 05:40 AM

i do aspalt, so i have been thinkn bout that for a while. it really isnt that hard or expensive if u know what ur doin. i got a spot in the country, just dont have the time to get out there and do it.

you should ask someone who paves for a living. not stunt life!

good luck though. it would be sick if you owned your own stunt spot

Hope this helps..

imo...this is the closest to reality yet... only problem is....in imo...THAT's even too small of a lot... I think the lot needs to be 300 or 400 x 100 at least .... and I'd figure $50,000 to put in something decent like that. It wont be long and we'll have a spot like this in TN :YEAH

If you're lookin at spending $50,000+ you might as well build a townhouse or something on the property so you guys can live at your spot :D

I'd tell you where it is, BUT its not a spot to bring your bike out to and learn how to 12 at. There have been a few nasty collisions out there between guys doing power wheelies running into OG's.

great idea, especially with the economy, and all the closed down businesses. Just lease it for a year, and get like 6-8 friends. Shit might be cheaper than an apartment. You could even start a business distributing stunt products as a store front, and have a stunt park in the back!

Get a group together and start a "business" like an LLC or whatever, where everyone is joint owner, then use the business to start the lease for the building. That way if shit goes down the business can claim bankruptcy and won't really hurt you individually.

No matter what you do or how you do it, make sure there's a shit load of insurance in case anything happens. And sign waivers every time you or someone else rides there.

bro people ride there every sunday without incident. land owner just asked us to make sure the trash gets picked up when we leave, and nobody drives on the grass.

In colorado we went to the airport and found a couple rich airplane owners who rent hangers on the taxiway. They usually take their planes somewhere warm during the winter so they dont have to winterize them. We sign a waiver and offer to help out with rent during the winter months (this time its just me doin the chippin in but i told em i'd give em $150 per month) they pull their plane out and now I have an indoor sound proof practice spot with permission. Pretty cool if you can find someone and it only costs me about $450 for the whole winter.

KANE>NIN · 10-12-2008, 01:18 PM
