nice wood work and flicks!
wooot I might be coming up in August.
Nice pics, the construction looks top notch...
i love what you call "small drops"
Looks fun to me..
The question was what is a big drop? Not what is insanity.
I would say those are mediumly decent drops. certainly not small... small is 1-4
Id say the first one is a 8-10 foot drop depending on how fast you hit it. You cant see the landing at all in the first pic. I consider anything over 12ft a big drop. I did this section today and it is smoooooth. I nosed it off the last one but it wasnt bad.
BROKEN SPOKE
Get your butt up here. There are some sweet trails.
Here are some more pics of the same area. Ive posted these before, so sorry if you have already seen them. My buddy brought his kids.

Those look fun! I just built a drop in town, but i'm not sure how big it is. Maybe 6-7'?
edit: After hitting it faster, it might be up to 10'.

err small drops?! that stuff would kill me. I better keep practising .... and upgrade from my hardtail 
. I also have a larger 9 foot drop ready to do once I get DS.
ouch! i did a jump on my hardtail ... just a little one, that ended up being bigger than i thought .... i broke my tailbone :-( but i stil went riding 2 weeks later
Some people hit some huge drops on hardtails. Hucking on hardtail takes a little more confidence.
good to see...I must improve on my skills then. I have been on the wood at Winterberg Germany but that is it, looking forward to moving to Montana this summer if anything for the places to ride.
more confidence and a nice steep landings for bigger drops on a ht.
I love the NS stuff pics....awesome !
k9handler i have done up to a 12' drop on a hardtail. you need to make sure the transition is good mainly to hit big drops of a hardtail. just work your way up slowly and make sure you feel like you can make the drop with a certain amount of ease. if you don't feel fairly confident then don't even think about doing it.
Where are these trails at? They look awsome.
