Just to put this one to bed - its a DM tread. The bone yard was built by a pro for the pros - JC. I strongly feel that you will appreciate the show at Crankwokx. You need big stuff to show off the goods that everyone wants to see and the riders want to showcase. Big gaps/drops with butter trannies = safe good show.
How about the creek gap (wink, wink changing the subject)? Is that fun or what? This is a subject for the other thread, but if you want to know for sure, it is 21' lip to lip. Measured it today with a ruler (Tape). Kira is my witness. You can easily boost a 30' footer if you pin it.
Caution!!!! It kicks a bit…

I did that yesterday for the first time. (not on purpose however) It was super fun though, definatly improves some skills, and really annoys you when people are in your way :)

the last jump on BX was scary the first time without a chain. but by the end of the day I was even doing the DJ's chainless. I might ride there again without a chain.

Timo?

Anyways, i don't think that the stunts need to get bigger, riders just need to get more creative.

wasn't that back when it was called "Joyride" not Crankworx?

Is there a Vancouver in Taiwan?! I had no idea!!

Nothing sums up my life's achievements like my stuffed corpse, suplexing a cougar.

No Timo hurt himself at the first Crankworx, the year before it was called the Gravity Fest, but NBC did not like WB using "Gravity" in the name so Crankworx came out, before the Gravity Fest it was the Summer Sessions, and before that it was Joyride……
