Dude, what the f*ck is wrong with you. Those are jagged rocks. Oh yah, real smooth dumb f*ck. I'd pay to see you even attempt to do that ladder you cocky son of a bitch.

Rolling up to the lip you are thinkin' "Aw, it is probably just some smooth transition, I am just gonna blast at it and send her" then you land on the "smooth" rocks and spend the rest of your life eating food out of tubes.

yea you always have to be looking ahead on this part because once you get off the ladder you can either make a pretty sharp turn or go face first into a tree

that part of the course was one of the easier sections, looks gnarly but you go down it so quick its not to big of a deal. farther down it got pretty sketchy with all the wet roots though. such a good course.

Your kidding right. The east of North America is known for it's crazy rocky terrain.

That is true. But it doesn't mean the terrain is as rough...And thats what this arguement is about.

flag avery25 (Sep 27, 2008 at 15:43)
well...how about...both coasts are even on the rough terrain, considering we have the huge rock roller and things like this, and you have the jagged fast rough stuff?
