not just any old day at the shed... RT got a makeover today and the transition was pushed out quite a bit to make the gap about ~10 feet. this time, only one person would get some RT action: DßR.
dan hit it 3 times today. cleaned it nicely on the first run on his evil imperial (hard tail). cleaned it nicely on the second run on mark's azonic eliminator. three times was not the charm. his front wheel slipped off the skinny on the 3rd attempt and he ended up going face first into the launch and doing a (stylish) front flip and landing on his shoulders/back on the tyranny. luckily, he landed just right and ended up with just a few scrapes and bruises... but scared off anyone else from wanting to try it today
here are some pics and video (links to video clips all the way at the bottom).
