good fucking lord.

Craazzzzy speed.

Looks like they were able to build a much smoother tranny and inrun than I've ever seen before on chads. it was really mellow and allowed for a lot of speed it looks like.

The beginning of the movie POP is hilarious.

"And he shoots, oh it looks to be a good shot, its headed for the green. Oh no, it looks like he has overshot the green and is landing, in the rough" as he overshoots chads by like 100 ft haha

Yeah, dub corks look so sick...and I can't believe how far they took it.  I thought Travis was going to die coming around the last 90...

yea, but those were their first hits. after that they go about the same size as everyone else who hit before. travis did a sw bs five over it and it looks like he barely clears the gap at all. but then he took a bs rodeo 7 to about 140 or 150 ft. the amount of tricks they landed in that session will never be replicated.

tanner was hitting it in the spring and switch. and his inrun looked much more bumpy than travis' inrun. the speed was probably way slower.
