Yo i live in emmarentia. Where were you planning on building? You gotta be careful in the parks cos city parks love to flatten our hard work. There used to be a huge bmx line just below emmarentia dam but that got destroyed.

hmmm well there are a few open parks in the area i was thinking there below the dam by the scout hall. other wise just off the spruit in Montgomery park. i can try speak to the community chair and see if we can get permission. 

 

failing that ill pull out the big guns and get in touch with a contact i have in the DA that is part of town planning and see what he has to say.

 

i dont really see a reason why we can do it.

I am average at jumping and live in the area, I will help out to build in trade for some lessons on jumping :)

 

But to your discussion, jumps get built, someone breaks a bone badly, jumps get destroyed... It's kind of the cycle with jumps.. So my advice, build where people can't see them (Yes I know they are not easy to hide)

well do you guys wanna meet up Saturday some time and we ride the area look for some options to build at and then go get spades etc and start building?

i'm with mudflap on rocking a spade for a while in exchange for some jumping lessons.  i just don't own a spade, but i've got some half decent shoulders to operate one
