How do you build them?
seriously..at 2:30 pm, most people on this forum are at work. Give them some time to respond before you post again tiger.
While true (thankfully I am my own boss), we also have others things to attend to and cannot jump to a teeter totter builders aid at a moments notice.dfinn said:
I was at school. We are doing some project things. In English, me and 2 other kids were supposed to read a story for class in the library(that we would later summarize at home). I read while I was on rm today.
I have a teeter totter in my back yard now... Pictures to come soon...

I'm not sure I understand why your downhill team requires teeter-toters.
Do you mean freeride team?
Do you come in rootbeer?

Dh and fr team. I didn;t get a bullit yet, I am still looking for a 7inch small bullit. I raced at firestone on my level bettty, it was a little hard with that but my fist run was 1:54 then 1:51
Might wanna post in a freeride forum ...try www.dropzone.com
How do you upload pics
Don't make a 'quick reply'. Look at the bottom left of the last post of this thread. You see "Reply"??? Click that and it should be self explanatory from there.mtnbrider said:

I've learned that if you right click on a photo and select "Properties", then copy and paste the "http" address of the photo into the IMG tag, it works quick.
What if the picture is on my computer?
Use the "Manage attachments" in the Additional Options when you post or reply to a thread.
oh, I didn't notice that-thanks
If oyu want to post the full size image all you do is create an account on www.photobucket.com and save the photo there. It creates this tag that will have IMG in a pair of [ ]mtnbrider said:
rootbeer- me or a bullit?
I am almost done with our logo.
so are you an actual team or are you guys just a buncha buds who ride. who you guys sponsored by?
ps: the rootbeer thing is an ongoing joke around here about freeriders.

we need a hucker forum please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
well congratulations on that. teams are usually sponsored. that's what makes them a team.mtnbrider said:
so what makes yall a team?
So you're part of a "team" that doesn't really race and has no sponsers. Not only that, but you want to make teeter totters? Here you go- PINKBIKE!!!
i agree. www.pinkbike.com will hook you guys up and get you started. ask those guys. they know tons about freeride teams and building northshore style stunts as well
your right. im sorry. im an elitist moron. let me end myself....
We raced at firestone . We are starting to do Dh racing, but we are going to build a bunch of stuff at my friends ranch in Morro Bay. Maybe eventually we will get sponsors later. Pink bike is full those canadiens.
When my friends and I wanted to make a team we didnt have any sponsors or many races under our belt, but we made a team anyway. Then we made a website and asked companies to look at it. Over time we got quite a few offers from sponsors. I highly recommend a website so that people know your out there. If you would like to look at ours, check out www.norcalfreeride.com. Good luck.
What's so hard about making a team? You come up with a name and ride together. Use that name when you enter races. Simple really.
As fork making teter-totters... Go to a playground and look at the teter-totters there, and then improvise based on your supplies.

We can't get sponsors right away-how would you do that. We are just going to race with each other and maybe become goood enough to get sponsored.
