BUILDING A HUGE ROLL IN AT MY NEW MTB COMPOUND!!

[@hornzeerides72]

The "Tompound" is just golden...you will need to have a sign made up...great start ...cheers 🇨🇦🤘

[@TomCardy]

Agreed! 🤟

[@zingpoppo4342]

Tom Cardy … outstanding in his field!

[@junka1975]

Definitely the right name, "The Tompound" compound. The wooden Kicker to mulch sounds like the right choice. Good luck Tom. I look forward to seeing the rest and you and Kara dropping in on your first feature.

[@theadventuresofraz8706]

Yeah bro. Love your stoke and drive. Good soundtrack. Mean tom-tower too!

[@thomasmtb307]

That build was so much fun to watch. Can't wait for more.

[@G3OJ3]

just to let you know there is a pre installed iphone app called measure and it has a setting for leveling and angles and ect and its probably the best one to use.

[@leonardre]

I would put a lean to off the side off the roll in top, then you could run a length of guttering off the bottom of the lean to collect all the water, it would give you shade in the summer, a place to get out the rain also you could eventually put sides on ot and make it into a chill den, kind off like a car port sort of thing.

[@eartharrow6772]

Yeah I've often wandered why roll ins aren't used to make shacks for storage or chilling in the rain

[@courtcreative3239]

you really had to call it a tompound

[@TomCardy]

Damm right haha!

[@RobertMarsh1988]

​@@TomCardy what else are you going to build in the tompound? Also, if you don't call it the tompound in future I'm unsubscribing from you and Kara forever. Hahahaha

[@wheels.3239]

I have been building a track for about a year, I wish I'd done more homework, good prep will save you so much work. Kara, your a legend, We seen ya there, even in the rain, most MTB blokes are getting told off and you are in boots n all. Cheers from Australia.

[@markpeterson8978]

Right on Tom! Well Good Bro. I think you are on point. Do what your imagination shows you. Cheers - M

[@mikaeljacobsson1437]

Always make me happy when good people get good things. Will be fun to follow your project. :)

[@GalacticWoodsman]

Looks awesome! Only thing I might do different is instead of digging the pallets down it might be worth looking into a load of road planings to go on top of the existing soil. With all the water you guys have digging down could create pooling areas and rot your pallets! Either way excited to see what you make 🤘🏻

[@wm05eb]

This 🔥

[@thommyhellqvist7351]

Awesome. I covered (Glued) my rollin with a asphalt carpet used for roof. Because it protects the material and the non-slip makes a braketap without sliding out, possible on the way down. Just a tip from me to you two. Anyway cant wait for the next video. God luck.

[@PriZeMaN1]

Loving the water butt idea at the Tompound!

[@Blast606]

Great job. Can't wait to see more. Thanks.

[@Twonksvids]

Looks great so far. I'd go for a bike lift next to it, maybe even a wooden built thing to keep with the theme, cranked from the top. Shouldn't prove too difficult and would save the space needed for a push ramp or guide rail + steps on the main ramp.

[@davecardy3984]

Great progress Tom good woodworking skills looking foward to seeing you ride it 👍👍👍

[@drbrowny90]

The “Tompound” got me way more than it should have 🤣🤣 Fantastic build on that roll in well played!

[@glynwilliams857]

Love it mate. Can’t wait to see it finish and hopefully ride it 😉

[@TomCardy]

Thanks matey!

[@Tomidsch]

This looks wicked! I ride bikes and also a carpenter so this ticks both boxes! I love watching build videos so really looking forward to this series. I would anticipate building something in the future that somehow incorporates that roll in into a feature to get more out of it. Maybe dig slightly under the ramp so you can have a mini tunnel feature!

[@nosreuter]

Congrats on the compound!!

[@michaelhex]

I was just about to ask about scaffolding...................but you answered my question just in time. !!!

[@TomCardy]

🤟🤟

[@mrbbqcraig]

Absolutely awesome idea with the water, wa a cool noggin you 'ave 😂 Looking forward to the next vid dude... cheers to you 🤟🎶

[@eartharrow6772]

Great idea for the water butt

[@n9vicemtb]

Sick Tom can't wait to see what comes next

[@TomCardy]

Thanks!

[@servidig483]

The angling of the tower to collect water is genius

[@thomascray]

Can't wait to see how this progresses! Great start!

[@nathandavies327]

This roll in looks awesome.

[@bikewatcher5428]

Hi, hope you don’t have the same locals as Sam ? Good luck👍

[@phillipstocksdale6317]

Nice!! I built a 12’ roll in on my property 🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@TomCardy]

That’s sick! Does it give you good speed?

[@chargeriderepeat7024]

Sweet ramp and tune.

[@ridethroughlifertl]

It's going to be sick. So much fun to be had.

[@TomCardy]

🤟🤟

[@raoulalecu7682]

Tom you don’t need to download an app for a level your phone has one already, it’s in the measure app

[@TomCardy]

That’s handy to know! 🤟👍

[@skaarlaw]

Maybe have a triple Y fork that one side goes to berms/rollers/northshore trail that loops round the back, middle goes to massive mulch jump and last side goes to a wooden fun box and quarter pipe? P.S. the workmanship on this looks insane! Pro biker and pro carpenter haha

[@damarapoledna3636]

Twenty years ago I built my 12 ft tall backyard roll-in similarly. The top rolled over much like yours but, I had 8 ft of vertical before rolling out at the bottom. Was super scary😬💀 at first but quickly became accustomed to it.

[@BenZ-jx4hx]

Nice one 🤘🏻

[@TheS4jordan]

Looking good, never seen you so buzzing and upbeat

[@pedaltothemetal3169]

It looks sick can’t wait for it to be rideable

[@SergejGrabun]

Happy for you lad! Well done. I'd start building something simple for starting guys as well. Nothing major. 2-3 tables, a berm in to another 2 tables and/or drop somewhere there :) More exposure for different skill sets

[@charlesbarles5359]

Looks amazing! Great work 👍🏻

[@lowvibe]

Epic man! 👏

[@hannesnystrom5609]

Love building videos

[@wertawonka]

You put cross braces on the main frame but nothing in the top which is just ply sides. Probably a good idea to have at least 1 A frame in the top

[@BABALOOEY46]

looks good... maybe need a support halfway down that roll in?

[@noobmaster-vh7jv]

Got a 13 feet high rolin at home and a 7 feet kicker with 1 feet stepup works like a dream

[@TomCardy]

Awesome! How much flat space between the roll in and the kicker do you have?

[@noobmaster-vh7jv]

​@@TomCardygot 3.5 meters bit tigth but it works good even for a enduro

[@dannyfitzmtb]

Loving the new Tompound 😅. Would be amazing to see some north shore style stuff.

[@ASalty381]

So sick !!🤙🏽

[@henrymorton7553]

not sure if the mulch jump is just going to be for dj bikes but if not there should be and easier way up than a ladder for e bikes and bigger bikes 🤘

[@TomCardy]

Agreed! I wanna use the E bike off this roll in too!

[@Cheapsh0t247]

maybe a pallet staircase?

[@Cheapsh0t247]

i saw a pallet staircase the other day and think it might work for walking up with bikes

[@Cheapsh0t247]

looking really good, i like your thought process. I would try and maximise this structure as much as possible and be tempted to have four roll-ins from this point if possible, it will need and addition to the side but you have 4 foot width, extend that by half a board and 2 posts and it could run 4 trails from one structure?

[@alexh.4068]

Should build stairs and a roll up ramp for a bike next to it!

[@alexh.4068]

Also, if you build the roll up ramp wide enough, it can be used as the drop in for a more mellow line for Kara. Might as well use the high platform you built as the start for more than 1 line right?? 🙂

[@JMcGwyer]

Lay asphalt in rather than pallets , pallets rot so quickly, ply rots just as quick. Try invest in buffalo board as a replacement

[@tomquimby8669]

if you can get Kara down that run in, that would count more scary than a backflip.

[@dvs620]

Glad to see that you put a rail in. Means you're not a complete nutter. 😉 IYKYK

[@raoulalecu7682]

Uploaded earlier than I thought you would coz I’ve just seen your insta story

[@TomCardy]

The time went weird in the story! Apologies!

[@jeremyharris4415]

Looking great Tom are you a builder by trade? It’s going to be a cool park when it’s finished

[@gregbarber2492]

Is Tom so dangerous with tools that Kara needs Hi-Viz for her own safety lol ? Good to see the project start though….

[@JenkinsB]

You check the local ordinances? Don't want neighbors pulling stunts like they did with Pilgs, lol.

[@servidig483]

Do "Tompound build" series with episode 1,2 etc

[@lukemtb6800]

Does Jack still ride mate? Haven’t seen him for years

[@BradenYoungMTB]

The Cardy Compound

[@Yayo11111]

Stihl saws 🤣

[@oliverbloomfield548]

nice carpentry

[@jameswhyte3834]

Roughly how much were all the materials?

[@TomCardy]

About £600 up till now! Timber is expensive!

[@jameswhyte3834]

God damn, I was hoping to build one similar to this but not anymore😂

[@mauricebruns1028]

Hopefully you don’t have any planning issues; like Sam ended up having.

[@lachlanmtb5543]

Yoooo Tom

[@rorylangridge7082]

instead of making a single moulch jump why not make a line of trick jumps?

[@TomCarson-l9k]

Why is Kara wearing high viz jacket

[@rogueblader]

I prob would not of made it that steep

[@ridethroughlifertl]

lmao Tompound. What a dork.

[@TomCardy]

Proper dork!😝😂

[@notzqro]

@@TomCardy A steezy dork!

[@Aussie.rules69]

Love you have Kara in Hi Viz. When ya gonna marry that lass?

[@jeanneemms4815]

A BIG WARNING to you, you mentioned that you are going to start cutting trees and bushes down, because it is your land, this still doesn’t give you the right to cut down what you want, we are currently in the nesting season, if you cut down trees and bushes without permission, you can quite easily go to Jail for this, like the gentleman did the other day, thinking he could just cut trees and bushes down as he liked on his land, this is a BIG NO NO, so before you start your work get some legal advice with a proper plan in place , you have been warned, I guarantee the council will be informed of your activities, not by me but but someone will

[@paulhusky580bts]

Do you Like Gift a Gave Kara at The Cycle Show at Weekend to go on Allmtn 3 Display

[@wm05eb]

That roll in looks epic! Looking forward to seeing what’s to come!!! But yeh I’d go for some crushed rock base for the run in not pallets similar to 417 🫡
