Hey guys, I'm building a top secret diy near me and I have the materials i just can't think of anything to make that would be fun for both me and the homies. Can you guys give me some suggestions or link me to some videos with sick diy's? My friend's dad can hook me up with pool coping and poles for coping or pole jams. also if anyone here does have a diy, how would i lock it? I really don't want some kids to show up to the park and start breaking shit like the last diy. Thanks doods

@Devin true but where it is located is a secret :)
@henry rohlfing like a boob shape? Like a 360° quarterpipe? I wanna make one of those sooo bad haha. I am gonna make a pool coping ledge because that sounds really fun and maye i'll add like a bank to that ledge later on

this is my local DIY. ive helped make a few of the concret structures there and have been involved with it including coming up with ideas since it started 3 years ago
Start with a basic quarter and some cinderblock ledges, dont get overly ambitious. Building with quikrete takes alot of work and can be expensive for something big.
feel free to ask me any questions about it

this was built on the foundation of an old warehouse, real smooth and flat and perfect size.
As for keeping it lowkey, we didnt quite do that. Its right in the middle of town pretty much and the town council and mayor immediatly knew. we have been in contact with them and have to follow certain restrictions because of liability, but they allow it. Id say either find a remote place you KNOW you wont get flak at, or build it somewhere and speak to your town council or mayor or whatever. A few times they threatened to destroy it, we even had to raise money to pay for insurance for it, but we cooperated and it turned out ok
