OK, had to stay up a bit late to finish it, but couldn't stop once I got rolling. As always, watch in HD and crank the tunes! Enjoy.

Yeaaaaaah Boooooy!

Loving it. I bet you were loving the new DH bike the first time you hit the endless tranny! I was completed wiped when I made it over there with Collin on flowcup weekend.

Have fun in whistler this weekend. Dude, you have to find whistlers version of the endless tranny jump. Its on joyride, just a little past that little drop skills park area.

Its at 2:49 here.... Carry as much speed as possible and soar! A-ron and I are heading up for the opening of crankworks.

I actually loved the DH bike every time I hit eternal tranny. Hitting the right side with speed Tyson and I both bottomed out every time. That's a high impact landing for sure. Considering stiffer springs now, although that's the only place I've bottomed after adjusting my shock.

What video you referring to? I think you forgot the link. How's your back feeling dude? You gonna get back on the horse soon?

oops. It's here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODvbs8jYlJQ

there isn't much lip but if you hit it with speed its a great jump.

Back is much better. Today is Raven's hump day, people are shuttling after work.Going to try and get out there but I have family stuff and the bearing on my freehub is dragging right now Sad

Probably just needs to be cleaned.

New dirt jump bike arrives tomorrow and taking it to Bend this weekend !!

Your going to have to check out the new Eschler park dirt jumps. Going to be sooo sweet when dialed. A-ron is going to look at a P1 today. hitting nicely designed dirt jumps is nirvana.

We'll get you a garage full of bikes in no time Smile

Hey Monkey,

I just got back from Whistler yesterday - it was off the hizz. Dirt Merchant was finished and is so effing good.

Where are the Eschler Park dirt jumps?

Hopefully we will have some DJs in Hood River in late Fall. We need a complex like Bend (Lair, Slalom & DJs).
