What about rebuilding it?

seraph (Sep 19, 2009 at 10:12)

They did at Trek World 2009, only the diameter was smaller. Someone did it on a 29er full suspension.

the original north shore

vancouverdirtjer (Aug 8, 2009 at 20:08)

you do know that North Shore isn't a thing but rather a place.

android (Aug 8, 2009 at 20:14)

Yeah, it stands for the north shore of Canada, but now all stunts/ladder bridges are called north shores. Or at least thats what we call them in cali.

vancouverdirtjer (Aug 8, 2009 at 20:25)

k, we just call it woodwork/ladders here on the shore lol

adderhead (Aug 12, 2009 at 11:10)

North Shore = North Vancouver. Big Grin

vancouverdirtjer (Aug 12, 2009 at 15:48)

North Shore=North Vancouver=Best place on earth for riding.

You know they used to raise these up to a height of 20' off the ground right?

The actual "Wall of Death" was a carnival vertical wall that was used for motorcycles.

That stuff is crazy! It would be sweet to have a mini one built into a freeride line somewhere.

Yeah, like one you could hop into and out of.
