nolipoli Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 This, at the DHL line. No, its not me, and I am not at liberty to say whether it was successful.
banna Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 This, at the DHL line. No, its not me, and I am not at liberty to say whether it was successful. Er... I'm no DH expert, but my gutt tells me he didn't exactly make this one.

patches Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 (edited) maybe... hahaha! the file name of the pic has confirmed my suspisions of the rider... now I just need to figure out which jump it's on. I'm still thinking it's #9 Edited June 28, 2011 by patches
Super_mil Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 I have to say that he looks low (unless he was rotating very fast )Looks like the final hip to me.

But yeah, jump #9 (or final hip) is where Peach and MissionS bust out the 360's and tail-whips
nolipoli Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 But the lip just doesn't have enough kick in it!!! But I must tell you, I am all for trying to make a jump that he will be able to successfully do the flip on.
Super_mil Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 I think the lip on the bomb hole has enough kick, all it needs is a steeper landing OR the Spruit Fairy could turn it into a step up then it'll be ideal for trying new tricks The fairy would really have to put his/her back into though as it'll require a fair amount of soil/fill. It also may require the regular spruit route to be massaged OR Tweak the lip of the hip

We They consulted with the Spruit Fairy and he suggested digging the entire bombhole run-in down... making it a smoother run in and being lower it will make the jump bigger. Then remove that rock the apprentice fairies put in as a lip and use it for the steeper step-up landing. If all goes well, construction will start on saturday morning Edited June 28, 2011 by patches
missionS Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 A Friend of mine Kyle Fletcher, Hitting it at MajikWhere are the landings? I sure hope I'm missing something
missionS Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 nolipoli props to your mate for trying this. I sure hope he didn't get hurt.
nolipoli Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 Patches, let me know when you are going, I think I may be available to come and help. MissionS, how was your jumping after your little, ahem, absence? Are you feeling strong? My mate is fine - just has a bruise or two, and is still keen to get it right!
