thats pretty sweet, looks like you're gonna need some nice speed to hit that up!

in the second pic, it looks like theres a tree right in the path of the tranny a bit out… i've never seen it in person obviously, but i wouldnt wanna hit up a 25 foot gap only to land and cook it wild-turkey-style into a tree :D :eek:

but nice building, get some pics up quick!!! :D

yeah i know lol i refrained from not putting up for so long because i'd rather see some one launching then what is about to be launched as for trees being where ever the landing if clear sailings and a big embankment after it witch will have a big old wall ride with all the speed from the gap.. and you will need tonz of speed to make it lol

The gap looks like it could be close to 20, but the drop looks to be 10..12ft?

either way, looks like it would be smooth to hit if done right with all that speed…..but it might be easier to get the size of the gap down if the lauch wasnt such a decline. (just my thoughts)
