that's gotta be the #1 way to beat the heat looks like you guys had a hell of a good time. is it better to bail off the bike or can you try and land it? seems like the bailing off you could get jacked up by the bike hitting you or something.
If I can come up with a ramp I am definitely going to go this summer. its only hit the 70s maybe 3 or 4 times this year. :rant:

Man lake jumping is the sh*t. Tear comes to my eyes watching you all take non-beater bikes off that jump.

On a different note, did you guys just search for your bikes after each jump?

Her is a taste from my lake launch

looks like a blast! you guys have a nice setup for sure.


We found that jumpin 26" into lakes is rad, the tires are so big they float the bikes.

they WERE beater bikes for sure, we built up the white one a couple days prior to the party and matts little brother brought his "lake" bike too, and now Clint bought a 100 dollar craigslister bike (its a fly luna with decent parts! wow) and some newish bars its ready for the lake, so that makes 3 for this weekend at least!!!! hey cmc im trying to figure out what day this weekend from Josh, but im talking another co worker into bringing his ski boat! should be tha sheeet

Not sure. Maybe 30-45 feet ? It was at least several times the length of the ramp, which along the bottom was probably at least 12'. I was told the ramp is 6'6" tall with a 16 foot transition.
