I did actually. And did quite well. It just never occurred to me how many dudes are almost exactly 6' tall. Apparently only 14% of men in the US are 6' or taller so I stand corrected.
But I still wonder where all the little frames go.
Average male height in the US and 99% of other countries is quite a bit below 6'

Right, but I'm not talking of the population of the U.S. I'm talking of the population of U.S. DH riders, which seem to have a mean distinctly above 5'9" (or whatever the national average male height is).
Geez, you little guys are picky. 5'10", 6', whatever. It just seems that if all bike manufacturers make frames for smaller people that it would make sense to make them for taller people as well. A small fits a smaller dude but a large fits an average height dude. WTF?
Oh, and congrats to all of you who have received your beautiful new frames. They look sick.
It works but a long stem and a wide bar on a steep trail will feel really bad if you overdo it.
It's impossible to keep everyone happy.
Personally I prefer that the granularity of the sizing has increased rather than the largest size extending the range, because now all those people 5'10 - 6' (seemingly a fairly big portion of riders, esp. compared to those too big for an XL) won't be struggling to pick between a medium and large.

Top right is me. clipped a pedal on a rock, OTB, bike laded 15 feet past me. ****s got pop son.
RainG - So how did it go this weekend at the race on the new steed?
Ohio - ... Ouch... Everything OK?
Little bruised but bike survived without a scratch. Dunno what happened, I was otb before I knew it. and expecting the bike to hit me in the back at any second, but as I continued to roll I watched it sail over me and about 15 feet down the trail before coming to rest.
The bike is super snappy and fast outta corners, real fast and it jumps so well. I gotta get the right #50 heavier spring on this week and fine tune it as I got my ass kicked in the rough stuff. Today was mostly a tweak settings day. I told Kevin I felt alot slower on it, but was jumping everything alot farther than prior and on my first run even.
It jumps so damn amazingly well.

so how well does it jump?
damn well
Bucked! Start a thread!
I rode like a wuss after crashing in practice and got 10th. Bike rode awesome. Next race is Aug 5th hopefully I can put together a better run.
Hey - it happens!
I usually rip practice, and then stack it during my race run.
Glad to hear the bike felt good and performed well for you! Give em' hell at the next one!
my new spring will be here tomorrow and looking forward to a Sunday romp with KEvin's suggested set-up.
It sounds like everybody is running their Jumpression at 11!
Kevin told me:
go 50lbs up on spring
150-160PSI
6LSC
6HSC
Bottom out wide open

my rebound is at 3 clicks from full fast.
I'm back at work now, but I'll be at Kicking Horse Thursday to Monday for the Western Open.
PM sent.
These worked good for me. I think I ran my rebound slower tho. Tomorrow I'll add another click of HSC for this course.
