This probably doesn't qualify, but one of the nicer air pics I have. This is going on about 5 years old at this point.

is that from this season or last?

did diablo make any changes (i.e. get rid of the tree on the left hand side of the landing that I've seen three people plow into after blowing out the landing)

i like that drop, so scary but so butter. i heard rumors they pushed the lip out a little further, is that true?

This season, i am not sure of the tree, but i doubt it, if you land straight, you go straight into the canon. Lip is in the same spot

Here is one of me from this summer on my home dh track. I stacked it super hard on the first try by landing on the knuckle and then ejecting to a front flip. This shot was the first time I got some tranny. You have to hit it almost flat out but not completely so speed is a bit tricky.

I'm a complete newbie to this, and thanks to this thread I am dying to get out there and start getting better... Now if only I had a trail riding partner and some trails to hit!

jeez going through pix and found this one of Tahnée taken by Victor Lucas for Dirt Magazine back in 2010. It was over at the Morgins Road Gap in Switzerland - anyone wanna know about it ask BuckoW

Can't get as much air as a bike, but it's not too shabby!
