Bowled down deep after the wall. I decided i wanted to make a step down double bowl for something different. I'm trying to make every jump different than the one before it. The next lip is about seven feet tall. The gap is about eight feet, with a five feet step up. After the step up landing will be the wall ride against the barn. Should be ripping fun, and we will be hitting it by tomorrow.

Damn son...

How do you work drainage on that thing?

 

[dan wask]

Is it going to be a pond jump or something (sarcastic)? Whats the drainage going to look like ?

We got a total of about 3 weeks of rain this whole winter. Not realy an issue. We have access to a pool pump when we need it. On a regular winter the farm might be shut down for about 2 months at the most.

Really ? Thats interesting. Whats your dirt like ? Low clay content ?

There is no clay in the soil. It is 100% Norcal farm soil. Pretty much the best dirt on Earth.

Good to here. Honestly, one of the main reasons i post here, is in hope that other heads will get fired up, and start some sick trails. Anyone who has got the motivation is capable of building insane trails.
I hope one day that there are trails like these every where.

 

[kidwoo]

I'm fired up and digging as always but the sh1t you guys got going on is downright retarded.

Must be nice to have that many heads who show up to move dirt.

You guys gots da goods both in manpower and ideas. I can't believe how good that place is looking.

 

[sama1ter]

best looking mtb trails ive seen.
good job guys, and you can definitely rip.

 

[PatBranch]

That would be so fun to shoot there. Most of it is a little big for me .

You guys have such good ideas. It all fits together and flows so well.

 

[dexter]

god damn that place is sick....

 

[Castle]

damn! that's ill! props! big time inspiration for gettin my ass out there to dig!

 

[don]

Place is looking sick! I can't wait to see some vid of you guys riding that. Definitely getting the digging bug - not sure if we'll have stuff that sick but we'll be building more berms and hips rather than straight sets.

It's working man, it's working.

 

[DirtEveryDay]

WTF??? Zach, you are one sick individual. Props.
Who'd you get to roll your tubing? They did a nice job. Being a former fab shop/4x4 shop owner, I've been pushing steel stuff around here, but no one's diggin it. Seems like more than the dirt itself, you have some really sweet hookups. AND some really dedicated bros. You guys picking up the tab on all this, or getting some help? I'm hoping you're getting some help and that it sticks around for awhile!
Pat yourselves on the back for me!

 

[dan wask]

I want to dig. Surgery... gahhhhh

 

[ÆX]

shinny flat from massive lip carving.

i like your guys clean look to the jumps.

 

[Zach Dank]

A few more days of digging, and we can hang up the shuvels and just ride untill next winter.
We had a ripping session today. Countless tailwhips, 360's, cork flips, supermans, no foot cans, barspins, and what ever else you can think of. It seems we successfuly made DJ heaven a reality. Now go build your own, and we can share.

 

[loco-gringo]

Rock stars will kill themselves for not being this f*^king cool. That is so bad ass. Props bitches.

 

[BJ-]

Dayium, that place gets better and better...

 

[LeRoy]

My two sporting heroes these days are Zack (and crew of course) and Georges St. Pierre. I think I know who'd win if they duked it out but with a set of trails like that the Jump Farm crew would probably have a higher "rad" ranking.

 

[DH biker]

Amazing pictures... As always. You guys continue to step it up just like on the STINC. Keep up the good work.

By the way, I have the same boots as that guy.

The flow is rediculously retarded sick.
I just got home from a full day of riding at the Farm. I didn't snap any pics, but i got some insane footy. Listen to the line my homie Andrew pulled. X-up the drop in, no foot can the first dub, stretched out superman the second dub, table the hip, tailwhip the fourth, to wallride, to corked backflip the fifth.
It might have been the sickest line i have ever seen done on a mountainbike. Unbelievable.
Video soon to come...

 

[kidwoo]

That's not little andrew the bmx convert with the nice vid cam is it?

 

[Zach Dank]

Andrew Taylor from Santa Rosa.

 

[mosplat]

the superman in the pic is beautifully executed.
the jumps are nice like it doesn't even have to be said.
the video will definitely be a must-see.

thanks for sharing.
it's great motivation to dig and to ride.

 

[muddy beast]

oh man thats a nice park...and sick riders! Props to all of you guys.

P.S. What kinda camera are you guys using? Though are good photos

 

[bent^biker]

wow, just wow....you guys might just get a call from the collective or somebody wanting to film there......sic

 

[muddy beast]

dude...if I was a production company, I would pay you guys big bucks just to talk about the place.

 

[LeRoy]

and it's official... you guys are all I have left.

 

[.:Jeenyus:.]

video?

please?

 

[OGRipper]

Talked to Spangler for a bit at the Otter, he had nothing but good things to say about the Farm, Zach, and the rest of the crew.

And his x-ups at the Furry Fury were sporting mad style.

 

[DirtEveryDay]

I wish I had a signature trick. Hell...I wish I had A trick! I do have a signature "OH SH$T!!!" right before I smash into the Earth, though...

 

[Zach Dank]

Well, we finished building today. Started 3 months ago with a vision, and turned it into reality. The Farm is the sickest DJ spot i have ever been to. Mission accomplished. We celebrated with expensive champagne.
We just have to get our lighting up for the night sessions. We installed a fridge yesterday. It is packed full of PBR, and it will stay that way.

G scrubbing the wall hip.

Joey testing the new wall.

My hommies at Transition topped the day off with a cherry on top, by sending me a Double to the Farm to throw down on.

[3D.]

That place is sweet, you guys are really set.

 

[Bicyclist]

Sickness. I'm seriously gonna try and find a spot to build.
