The is one of three shots of Mike manualing the whole ledge, pretty damn long one that is about 5 feet high in the middle with a nice stair gap in the beginning.
Yeah, we hit that up...that thing is pretty fun. It actually shoots you real fast when you go into it like a spine. If you have ever seen Criminal Mischief, Van Homan manuals into and out of it and that is just crazy.
He is using brakes on his bike, mainly just feathering during long manuals. He is pretty good at them, last night we were at Penn and Drexel and he did a nice one by hopping up 4 stairs and going across a big walkway to almost ice picking a rail at the end.
I myself use brakes mainly on high speed ones down hills...but for ones on ledges and on slow flats, I don't touch them.
