Odinson Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Just a small drop... "The Toonie" drop in North Vancouver http://ep1.pinkbike.org/p4pb5848037/p4pb5848037.jpg There is only two eventualities to taking a drop like that - you either make it and gain instant "Trail Legend" status or you die.

Eddy Gordo Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 is there another angle to that pic. I would really like to see the line as I dont think it looks that huge
Odinson Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 is there another angle to that pic. I would really like to see the line as I dont think it looks that huge That is still probably a vertical drop of in excess of 8m. Not for sissies. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem, Eddy Gordo and Raydek 3

Raydek Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 I have this game with my wife that we call HOW MUCH, i.e. Everyone has a price to do something... Me, with the right bike and protection, 10k and I will attempt it.

Raydek Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) By my very scientific method of measuring the wheel size, creating a ratio and then measuring the drop. It works out at about 8,650 meters. Not taking into consideration angle of picture and trajectory.... And also assuming it is a 650b, middle ground! Edited January 20, 2015 by Raydek Eddy Gordo 1
NicoBoshoff Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) Not just the height though. You need to send that bad boy. On the video you see how hard it ejects him over the bars upon landing. Bike slams and then you have to ride it out with 0mm travel left. Edited January 20, 2015 by NicoBoshoff
