What area of L.A. you at? I'm usually at Kenter 2-3 times a month and also have a cool little local spot out here just east of Pasadena.

According to your screename you will get beat down if you bring your damn fiddy out to any mtb/bmx jump spot.
Damn good call, I didn't even notice that.

Show up with your boycycle at any DJ spot and get ready for a beat down. I'm usually super mellow, but I can't stand 50s and their bozo-case every jump, destroy lips, pin-it going 12mph, knee to you ears, mentality. Burn in hell 50 riders.

rant off.

bwahahahaha... dont worry bout the 50,, they got theyre place, and i know its not tearing apart good trails :thumb: the 50's sold anyway. :blah: ive built many a jump in the past and know how much work goes into getting chit right. I live smack dab in the middle of hollywood, so Kenter isnt far at all, neither is pasadena. Id love to meet some folks to roll with, cuz taking a header out riding alone is no fun :think:

If ya ever get lost and find yourself in OC, check out Slater Trails or Sheep hills if it isnt a dust bowl still..:(

Kenter is sweet and not sure if there is anything decently jumpable in Del Cerro but might be worth a look? Class, anyone?

Slater got huge... not just the size of the jumps... just the whole area, at least last time I checked pre-rainy season we had, yur mileage may vary.

Hidden Valley was being worked on last time I was there(bout 8 months ago) and have no Idea of the current condition...

slater isnt huge at all anymore... the city came and tore down the "pro packs" around october. there are a couple of things on the other side of the river thing but the only real big thing there is the cliff drop. Youll get bored of it after an hour.

Would this just happen to be the spot just east of Pasadena? BMXers are building this spot up but wouldnt mind finding somewhere else around here.


If its not I may have to get some info from ya.

Where are these spots you guys are talking about. Im just about 10mins local streets south of pasadena and five minutes from alhambra. I would love to ride a local spot...instead of driving to OC or Westwood. PM me if you want to keep it *hush hush* :thumb: CHEERS!

Nice pic, I was out there yesterday with Bruno. That spot is okay, could use some work though. We had an awesome session today. Pics to come in a minute.

Ha,

I did that step up, step down on my road bike. The brakes sucked and I ate ****e about 30 feet later. Someone has video of it.
I'd love to see that!! So you must have gone down right before the double?

After the step down there is a small turn then a double, I was going so fast because my brakes weren't working that I just went straight through the turn and wound up in a bunch of bushes.

We went back up on Monday and Bruno and James both hit the lower section minus the 30 footer. Soooo smooth. We were playing around on the road gap and I was overshooting it by a mile. :D
