So this weekend I was chilling at my cabin, and decided to build some new bike jumps. I went a little over the top and spent most of the weekend on it (mostly because Im stoked on getting my new Kona stinky). here is the result....

1. why did you put like 8 jumps all in one spot
and 2. why is there a table in the middle :S

like 3 of the jumps seem to have no real landing...

thanks for the comment! i put them all in one spot because i can getsome sick shots from the roof, its so close to the cabin, and i dont want to destroy our whole property by spreading jumps out everywhere. you can not really see it but there is a huge hill going into the jumps, hence half of those "jumps" that you can see are acually just landings. every jump has about 3 landing spots, which is relly sick. finally, the table is there so that i cn manual over it or use it as a table top jump (literally), incase i undershoot.

or better yet, use the gokart, cruise the streets, sell your product, make 600, buy your bike!

foolproof

i sold it to a neighbor so I'm basically getting 600 to have to walk across the street and ask to use it. no biggie. also, we tore part of the stuff shown in my op to build the side kicker bigger. ill get pics up of that sometime.
