Jon, I told you we need to put barbed wire at the top to catch people if they are going over

 

[ridiculous]

too expensive, that white primer set us back too much

 

[MTB_Rob_NC]

You are the man Kenan

 

[hardtailpride]

we have created a monster. Just wait till we start building dirt jumps!

 

[V-Dub GTI]

I thought that redbull was going to paint something on it, other than just plain white.

 

[Jeremy R]

Thanks Kenan. You rule.
Jumping off the other side of that thing was fun.
Right up until I enjoyed the dirt buffet.

 

[ridiculous]

red bull is going to paint it this thursday with their logo and with flat black grip paint.


I really want to add another section of sheets to the top of the wallride but the amount of bracing that would require is just stupid. Not mention we dont even have a ladder.

So this thing is more like a corner/biggset berm ever than a wallride?

Hey guys...I just noticed that the pictures above look WAY darker on my desktop than on my laptop. If they look crazy dark you may want to calibrate your monitor (pretty sure the laptop is correctly done).

I'm looking at them on a calibrated monitor and they look dark to me... still looks like a blast though.

Right up until I enjoyed the dirt buffet.

Was it "all you can eat" or did you stop after one serving?

Oh yeah........thanks Kenan.......you da man!!

I take it me, Bo, and Moffat's attempt at 3 riders on the wall at once FAILED! Maybe we can make a better attempt at "synchronized cycling" next time!

Hhhmmm...got any suggestions as to why they're not looking good? Yours always come out awesome. I think the shutter speed was between 250 and 800 and the aperture was between 6-10 or something like that...

There is a lot of white in the frame for the camera's meter to pick up on. So it appears, the camera exposed trying to keep the wall ride exposed well.

You could have exposed for less of the wall and for more of the rider/overall surroundings. Then you would have gained a little more detail in the shadows at the expense of the detail in the wall ride.

Hope that helps.



edit: I sent a PM, trying not to derail the thread too much.

 

[ridiculous]

well next time you guys see it it will probably be black, so adjust accordingly.

 

[Murphy's Law]

Hey if red bull is painting that wall and what not, does that mean there will be free red bull????

 

[ridiculous]

sure does, free product for everyone.

Red Bull said we werent allowed to put anything on our flyer

 

[LaChica]

Since they don't own the rights to the event and it's promotion.

No problem Mo! That was my favorite sequence shot of the day...like I said before it looks absolutely awesome on my laptop but it seems to suck everywhere else. I probably can whip up a high res version if you'd like it.

Just a heads up to everyone planning on riding Friday afternoon.

due to the weather report for thursday
THE WALL RIDE WILL BE CLOSED FRIDAY FOR PAINT!

the rest of the trail will be open for practice though.
