So yesterday I rode Platinum for the first time EVER. At the start of the day, the biggest drop i had hit was a 6, and never had even hit a drop with a gap of more than 3 feet. It was a beautiful day, and i started it off by hitting the drop under the log. Next, I hit the rock gap, and minutes later the coaster drop. It was awesome, i went from 6 foot drops to 8 foot in a matter of minutes. The other thing i loved about platinum, was that it was taylored to my skill level. Besides the first two jumps, and the steep rock (drop?) right after, I was able to hit everything on the trail ! Such amazing woodwork on it too, and the most fun i think ive ever had on a trail ! No wonder they want to keep it a secret !

although we like your little trail tale, we are not interested in the height of the drop.

Well, if you write a narrative essay, we all know markers dont' like numbers.

I think what he is trying to say is: unless the drops are double digit drops, he doesn't want to hear about them. DOUBLE DIGIT DROPS!!

Well, interestingly enough, I doubt really smart guys would ever hit double digit drops. Too much risk and possible consequence for a really smart person to ignore… atleast, that is how I explain not hitting big drops and gaps..
