Hey as some of you know */EWF and I are still on a trampoline and want to move to a ring. We can't afford a ring so we want to build one. Most people have said to just build a base instead of a ring? anyone have details on how to build one and what is is and what you need and crap. The idea we had for a ring was just a layer of tires, plywood(or some kind of wood) tarp. Then poles with turnbuckles and gardenhose with chain in them for ropes. Advice?

Put padding between the tarp and the wood, or you might die.

You dont necesarily need tires. You could use pallets instead.

theres alot of differnt ways to build a base.....
the base i have is..... matresses, double ply wood, ONE layer of carpet padding, ONE layer of carpet.
If you build your base liek i said (excatly) tehn it gives you a bump closest to the feel of a ring.
or you can always ground bump.
