with the clever use of sattelite techology i have an overhead view of the ramp location!
however due to me being too tight to pay for the proper version of the program the image i have is approximately 2 years old :-[
the ramp location would be (by my guesstimation) pretty much by the tree in the centre of this picture!
resolution isn't amazing but that might even be a halfpipe in the pic?
i'm sure Carlo will help verify?

it doesn't look like the new layout he posted pics of earlier in the thread as its probably about an 18 month old pic, but yeah, its big enough!

i just used the smal parts of the background in the pics you posted & matched them to the area you mentioned ;)

it only took a little while as i kinda knew roughly where Pagham was, and the rest was just a bit of detective work LOL

do you get more recent pics if you pay for the proper version of Google Earth because if you do i'd probably buy it!
the pics taken around the area i live are about 2 years out of date as i can see the level of renovation work that was done at the stables my ex missus used to keep her horse at & i could clearly see the old roof still on her building!

the only time i ever went to Pagham was to have sex on the beach down the bottom of Dark Lane, so yeah i do remember the place ;D
although we came over from Bognor & only came as far as Dark Lane which isn't as far along the coast as you are so its still somewhere i've never been :o

Carlo, this looks pretty sick, I'm hoping to do something similar in a few months (all be it on a smaller plot) have you had any problems with Neighbours? also what's the smallest transition you can get away with that still works? as I have a 10 foot ceiling in the indoor section, so would be looking at a 3 or 4ft max 1/4er not sure what size to cut into it though. What size is the transition on your vertwall bowl on the elevated section?
