on reason why i see lots of trails get fucked up is cuase ppl make the lips of the jumps real fucking skiny

like once they make the lip of the jump, they shave off a shit load of the dirt from all the sides, to use to put on the landing... that makes it real easy for the lips to deteriote, and really easy to kick over, and real easy to get fucked up if a bike flies into it.... from what ive seen it would help lots of ppl if they dug up a lil extra dirt to make thier lips wide and thick and fat, and same with the bas of the jump

yeah i dont really understand that either, ive seen a jump or 2 of urs that had that in some pics it said TRICK on it, what happened if u did the same thing that kid did on bikewallsmash where he misses the lip and u smash into the landing instead?

ive never personally done that skinny thing, but i did turn a table top into a double so i could make the landing bigger/longer/wider

sometimes you dont have much dirt to use because most of it is hard and that, and then sometimes people use water on the jump and let it harden over night so it comes packed as hell and wont be diggable

When we build our jumps, we always make them almost as wide as they are tall. takes extra time but also makes for a longer lasting, safer jump.

if we had people round that rode we would have some kick ass jumps but no one ride and the people who do are too lazy to build

When me and my friend make ramps we make them wide so he can do 180s and I can laugh when he wipes out.

when we had trails, we had kids that just liked to dig or didnt have anything else to do, so they helped us build, along with like 4 or 5 riders

we had an 8 pack for a week..then they got torn down...fun times...fun times...

i agree. most of our jumps are built gay , with the skinny lip. so it fucks you all up if you hit it alittle to the side. I tell almost everyone not to build them like that.

i like to biuld my jumps like the jumps at my MX. wide and steep. but you dont always have enough dirt



talk to me if you need a sig.
