ya at the end of the day me and my buddys all went to the like 10 foot drop right off the cement path by the parking lot and were gonna do that to finish up the day.

well the last time i tried it i went way to fast totally overshot the ladding and landed totally flat bottoming my monster T with medium springs and i weigh 115 pounds. o and i also bent the left pedal (their azonic a-frames too!!!!)

The tree pwned i did that to by my monster has firm springs and was fine. Pwned.

So you CAN go too fast off of it. Sounds like you came out of it relatively OK, pride aside. I got halfway home yesterday when I realized that was you w/ the black G-spot. You and your buddies were rippin' it up pretty good.
I can still boast that of the 20+ runs I did yesterday, I didn't start a single run at the middle...all of 'em from the top. More fun for the run!

 

[cove rider]

yes you can go TOO fast its possible or im just dum who knows. hey what were you riding their. ya i was riding the black cove G-spot. i like to start at the middle cause its less of a walk and too me thats like the best part of te run anyways cause you hit the drop to ste down to table to hip. that part is my favorite. ya my friends are all pretty smooth and skilled.

I was riding the purple DBR w/ the flame decals ALL over it (white ff helmet blanketed with stickers as well) and my buddy had the Brass Monkey ht.
Hopefully one of the next times you see me, I'll be sporting my new rig.

I like starting at the top 'cuz it gives you that much more momentum for the lower section. Also nice to get a few hits in before you even get to the middle...sets the tempo/rhythm for the "good" part of the run. That last part of the walk is the easiest part, too - it levels out 40 ft. past the middle entrance.
It's all good so long as the folks that start at the middle are checking up for riders coming from above.

true true i always look up to see if peeps are coming before i go. hey is the new line up top getting packed down at all yet?

 

[thesacrifice]

Second time out to SST on Monday, had my new rig with me and I hit that far left (looking down from the top) drop that's near the top. I'm pretty stoked that I did that... next is that tree gap but I need to see someone do it first, thats intimidating

 

[DBR X6 RIDER]

true true i always look up to see if peeps are coming before i go. hey is the new line up top getting packed down at all yet?

Good deal. I was seeing several/many folks just jumping in w/ blinders on over the weekend and nearly flattened this lil' guy on Sat. That would have sucked real bad (for him...not me - well, me too but not physically).
I hit the new line a couple times on Sunday on my full-squish and had no problems up top. The area past the landing was still a little soft, but I'm sure the rain this week will help that situation out.

thesacrifice - if you're down there the next time I am, I'll give you a tow on the tree-drop. Been a while since I've done it, but it doesn't look any different than before. It looks alot harder than it really is...I laughed after I did it 'cuz I was expecting it to be waaaaay harder. IMO, that's one of the smoothest hits in the park.
I need to get back to hitting that frequently so Pip will finally commit to it as well.:devil:

 

[Gex]

Well ill be there on Thursday afternoon sacrafice, u can follow me on that then follow me down the trail gap!.

[DBR X6 RIDER]

Did you live, Tage? I must have taken off before that happened. That hit is starting to call my name...or some other Andy that rides out there.

I'm waiting until I get med. insurance in April - if not a little bit longer.

 

[Gex]

There is another Andy that rides there he has like 3 bikes nice ones 2. Vp free of the orange color, a heckler of the red kind, and a stumpy fsr of the black kind. Damn fine rides.

[cove rider]

That was great. Poor Poor rear shock.

indeed. hey are you gonna start posting more now that you got verizon?

 

[DBR X6 RIDER]

So I finally hit the treedrop again after what seemed like an eternity. I think I had this thread in my head as I was approaching the takeoff or something - I barely made it over the lip on the landing. Must have been too spooked to hit flat or something?!? I'll go back to being just a little more aggressive the next time.

p.s. - I'm not really sold on some of these new smilies. <---especially that one

what do you mean by the "tree drop" that same one that this thread started with or is there another drop i dont know about or somthing

 

[thesacrifice]

I'm confident I can hit it, just haven't seen it done so I have no clue how fast I need to go

just pedal fast and huck thats what i did the first time i hit it and did it perfect

 

[DBR X6 RIDER]

The one closest to the lot - the leadout puts you right along the paved trail.

I'll start thinking about this one after I get some medical insurance...

 

[cove rider]

my friend did that one for the first time a couple of weeks ago. i might do it next time im down that direction

 

[BIGHIT756]

haha...that drop is the shiz!! I hope I get my shock back soon, i miss hitting that thing!!

 

[Gex]

The trail gap is fun. The first time i did it all i was hearing in my head was Slipknot wait and bleed.

 

[cove rider]

the run in for the trail gap is kinda weird though thats the only thing i dont like about it
