So yeah, Robert (R_Compton) and I been hittin some jumps, yeah I broke the side plywood that was holding up dirt, landed my pedal on it first attempt.. HAHA.. 3 times balls bustin, 2 times got thrown across brim into the tree (ducked down on the bike), and pinched rear tube.. FUN TIMES! Life is only ONCE, so do something fun/crazy before its gone!

    Looks fun:beer:

    You could build a roll-in off the roof and add a bit more vert to the take off ... I would not do it but it would be fun to watch;)

    Nice set up you guys have. Let me know when you set up a BBQ. The other ramp you guys had looked stupid steep.:lol: I was saying to Robert yesterday now you need to build a wall ride on the neighbors roof.:) Once I get the new Mongoose im down to hit it up.

    nice! looks like fun.

    I've got a few friends that built a bunch of stuff in their similarly sized backyard too. big berm out in front so you can rail in from the street, 2 doubles (2 different sizes), a big berm at the back to turn you around, and 2 more doubles. I was amazed what they did with that little space.

    Yeah that is what I was saying, but you know neighbors might complain.. a little ladder off of the roof with steep landing would be nice. But I think pedaling is good execrise :)

    HAHA yeah my first try on that steep and scooped up ramp threw me off balance in air.

    Yeah we are working on it, making the brim bigger so we can get another jump after that one, then an quarter pipe after the 2nd jump.

    You should add in a berm after the landing and then a small jump or a few pumps back to the street

    Step up to your roof. Build a ladder bridge going to your neighbors roof...
    Build a little ply-wood patio, and build a step-down back down to the jump! :bang:
