If you were going any slower, you'd be going back up that rock. :ph34r:

Just kidding! Nice vid!

Hehehe...its a little steeper than the video depicts and a few sections that can stop that front wheel quickly if you going too fast :blush:

Little tidbit of advice: try to have a more neutral stance on the bike. Don't immediately have your breast bone smacking your seat the moment the trail goes down. If you're too far off the back of the bike, you make it difficult to control the front wheel.

Just my 2c.

Noted. It was rather steep so getting back felt good and easier. Next time i will be going so fast that i will just ramp right over that massive rock face...LOL

Rode Garden Route trailpark with Bos and CM,

we were pinning it down Long Drop. Looking at Bos we look slow - look at trail and you can gauge the speed a bit better.

apologies - please pardon the F-bomb...

Agree,but it is steeper than its looks,same as videos always look slower. But more than 80% of ppl would not even attempt it to ride that. Not bad for a first few attempts . we should of recorded some of the steeper stuff that managed to burp my wheel and re-seal,it's self immediately .And this jobby looking slime burped out my tyre ???????????????? Or I could of done a proper otb riding on the rim (scuse the pun)

You lucky that it sealed instantly heading down the rock faceĀ or else it would have been a very different and far more painful outcome....
