Capricorn Posted May 7, 2010 Share Jason: i'll bring along my kyle straits slim. Try those for fit.? But CRC does provide a little chart for sizing purposes. In a nutshell, you supposed to measure the circumference of your thigh just above the knee, and compare that to the sizing chart. Albeit that chart is for 661 knee pads, i reckon the sizes are generally universal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kamikaze Posted May 8, 2010 Share Since no one seems to be interested to ride there, I decided to go there by myself and get some photo?s - Maybe THAT will convince the downhillers of joburg?.. Where?s there? The minedumps that can be found strung all the way from industria in joburg all the way through to randfontein. Why the mine dumps? Well, if you like drop offs, steep cliffs with sick lines, sand dunes that tower 5 stories high with jumps at the bottom, and SO many possible new lines that you don?t know where to start, the mine dumps might excite you! I?ll let the pics speak for themselves. http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g77/krazy-eyes/DSC01052.jpg well ridden out by mx?ers, these lines pose a nice challenge for a DH bike. http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g77/krazy-eyes/DSC01053.jpg At a different dump, this dune is a favourite for mx?ers. But why should they have all the fun? http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g77/krazy-eyes/DSC01059.jpg it?s steep!.... http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g77/krazy-eyes/DSC01055.jpg ?..very steep! http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g77/krazy-eyes/DSC01056.jpg some small drop-offs with a nice 45degree roll out beneath them. http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g77/krazy-eyes/DSC01062.jpg View from the top http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g77/krazy-eyes/DSC01057.jpg doing 45km/h + is fun on the windblown sand. http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g77/krazy-eyes/DSC01066.jpg just one of the MANY nooks & crannies to be explored. http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g77/krazy-eyes/DSC01067.jpg http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g77/krazy-eyes/google.jpg this particular mine dump steps up in terraces ranging between 3 and 5 stories high. Each terrace has a steep dune flanked by more technical lines on either side. Some areas have a ?safe? soft landing on sand, others are hard-packed with consequences for a mistake. You decide how much danger you want to mix in. There are SO many possibilities one honestly doesn?t know where to start riding (and filming)!

Capricorn Posted May 8, 2010 Share has interesting options for building some stuff. btw: what's the radiation levels like at that mine dump? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamikaze Posted May 8, 2010 Share who cares about possible "radiation"? when the westerlies blow in winter the whole of joburg gets covered by a layer of sand off the mine dumps whether they like it or not. so if you are worried about radiation, dont live in joburg, because you're breathing that sh*t in unknowingly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capricorn Posted May 8, 2010 Share lol. i dont have a problem with it. btw: it's not a possibility. it's fact. I just asked a fairly rhetorical question. no ?need to get your knickers in a knot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capricorn Posted May 8, 2010 Share can you build there? would be awesome to carve out some sick jumps etc. and those ruts must be insane! imagine your pedals clip the ridges between ruts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamikaze Posted May 8, 2010 Share should be easy to build jumps. the sand is not rock hard, but still solid enough to ply into shapes the pics dont do it justice and represent maybe 5% of the entire area, there are some sick drop offs to be had. kamikaze2010-05-08 13:44:50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
