So much bigger. Smoother? Sure. But the consequence is huge in between take-off and smoothness…
Will watch and contemplate.
Whistler Bike Park 2014 conditions
It's already been flipped lol, in one of the deep summer slideshows
I saw that! Crazy. Was that Sean St. Denis' shot?
Looks like I'll never do it. Although it does look like a smooth transition.
It's seriously so easy, I maybe used 3" of travel on landing, beautifully built. Just hit it at jogging speed and enjoy the view.

And for an opposite point of view, I walked out to the end, just about pooped and walked back. :lol: I must say it isn't as big as it looks when you're about halfway down the ramp but it's still damn big. But I agree it's very well built.
Checked it out today as well, but opted out of hitting it, looks butterifec though, about the size height wise of the Dwayne Johnson rock but not as far out, more straight down kinda thing, its a beauty though, will crawl off it next time…otherwise I am giving props to the bike park liftie action today, 3 guys at the bottom making sure all bikes bit the rack perfect and no stoppages at all, kept both lines singles and all going real smooth. Was able to bang off 6 laps between 1130am and 200pm, unheard of on a busy Crankworx day…..

Yeah this year's liftees have been killer!
I hit it because there was no easy out down lol its super smooth just go slowly and let the wind whistle in your helmet on the drop
They have put up a chain link fence on Hecklers Rock - pretty lame IMO

yeah, well, when people are getting shitfaced and tumbling backwards down the rock, things like this are bound to happen.
Agreed. Shit was pretty out of hand last year.
Don't think this is the way to handle it, but something needed to change.
Seems like most of the people don't even heckle anymore.
Something had to be done. It definitely is an iconic spot [HTML_REMOVED] shouldn't be eliminated, but when people get hurt [HTML_REMOVED] get outta hand, they have to take steps. Edit; Did you see Danny Hart's Canadian Open DH Go Pro run? Insane how fast these guys go.
Thread killer

Where do I find this footage? I would like to see this. I heard there's also helmet cam footage of marcelo's garbo run. Anyone have the linkeys?
