@ xxslopestylerider9x

this isnt the first time this has ever happened i make jumps and kickers all the time. once i made a big step up to step down turkey road gap...it then got flooded with gravy so i hit the jumps on water skis ( noodles )

xxslopestylerider9x (Jun 22, 2011 at 4:31)

Nice, but I never told this guy that he origanally did it. All I said was props to whoever originally did this not meaning this person. I'm sure it happens all the time, I'm just saying that he creatively innovated the idea.
