this is dave, not fraser (too lazy to sign in)

i think that whatever program translated the original document from spanish to english decided that hall should be changed to foyer...kind of funny... if micayla spelled her name with two T's she would probably be micayla cat or something like that

I wasn't able to find any pics of the landing on Transcend, but I'll take your word for it.

...I'm really curious to see what the drop/tranny is like, however.

From that shot above, it almost seems as if you just launch off of that thing and then 20 sec. later make a crater where a parked car used to be somewhere downtown.

EDIT: Is that Josh Bender kneeling on the ply?

:biggrin:

... sorry to hear that.

So I guess I should start passing around the hat to collect bail money?

:biggrin:

Ahhh yes - alcohol, warm weather, and WAY too many dudes crammed into a confined space with scantily clad women... that's why I always went snowboarding during spring break.

Legal drinking age down there is 18 right?

Plus Fraser's size allows him to get much more dramatic angles of otherwise tiny tricks. Drain culverts, under cars, below curbs,etc. ....







(ok...that was my first height joke in a year. I'm good now.)

whoops - sorry Fras - since the other pic was from a photo-hosting site, I thought the "bottom out" pic was too. Didn't mean to link to it - My bad.

...OUCH.

...and I don't just mean Brendon.


Jesus... was that the plywood ramp/huck I was talking about with Stik? WTF?

Brendan destroyed 2 wheels.

1st Luana something

NICE! So great to see Antonio still destroying it. That guy has been one of the most underrated South American riders for years, and he's a super cool guy, too.

What was the first place prize?
