My first big jump!

[TWRT]

Remember, the reason the jump went from big to really big is because 'Bob bought dirt!'. By spring, we may need to extend it....... :silly:

Wow! 85'! My record biggest jump was the last table top on the kiddie track at Cooperland :scream:

great job, treejumper. i think my biggest jump is about 65' at the dunes in El Paso, Tx. i have video, but its VHS so i dont think i can put it on as a link. i have pics, but my dad took them from way up on another dune so it looks like i am just riding across a beach, cuz the sand looks all the same. oh well ;)
keep it up and you will be jumping higer and farther(or is it further :think: ).

in reference to the double at Cooperland--if that's the one i'm thinking of, its just after the camelback behind the start gate. It took me a bit of planning to get the nerve to do that one, not because it's long but because if overjumped there isn't much time to turn right to set up for the firt table. You almost need to turn a bit in the air...very cool, technical stuff!

I think MikeT may have seen this jump. Before he moved he used to ride with us sometimes but I think the jump may have been extended from 55' after he moved to Charlotte.

You talkin' about the big tabletop at Daves? That thing is pretty long.

 

[TreeKiller]

That's the one. I wasn't sure if we added the dirt after you moved.

OK, and is TWRT, Dave??

Can you get the links working again? I'd like to see the pictures. When you going to get Bob back on a bike?

 

[TreeKiller]

See if they work now Mike. TWRT is Dave. I'm not sure. Bob's linkage is broken right now. We've tried to get him to ride our bikes the past few times we rode but I think he's afraid that he'll hurt himself and have to deal misses. I don't think she took his little accident too well :( I'm sure he'll be back at after she's had some cooling off time.

I think Bob can still ride, and ride pretty good at that. He might just need to ride a little more mellow though. I'll look at the pics now. That jump is nothing to laugh at and one that needs to be taken seriously. I think major fun can still be had at Daves place without jumping that far. Bob (I know) will be back and even if he doesn't do the big Table top will still give anybody a run for their money around that place, except me ;) :p

Good pics. Wish I was there right now!

Bob, will be riding again, soon. I think he's just giving himself a little time to heal and let Mrs. Bob cool off. He'll hit the big TT most times so, I don't thank that'll be an issue.

That would be alot for me! It just seems my bikes flew further when I was 100 pounds lighter. :think:

Great news stay safe :thumb: :thumb:
