The concept of our jump was to make as much as possible bolted together so that it can be easily transported to the galvanisers. It also had to be constructed by people with minimal skills and minimum equipment.
All you need is a drop saw, an angle grinder, a 1⁄2” heavy duty low speed electric drill and an arc welder. There is also a demountable section below the waterline which is not only to make the bottom stiffer, but (in theory) to be removable so as to repair damage. The hydraulic rams are positioned so that the jump goes between 1m and 1.85m.
Jump plans were created by club member Robert Bingham in 2008-9 and are made freely available to the water ski community in the hope that they will advance the sport. Our thanks are due to Robert; however they carry no warranty as to fitness for purpose whatsoever.
