 This is that jump in a secret little section by that one river by that one town in Wales by all those trees, it's right there, if you've been there you'd know what I'm talking about for sure, it's that one river by those big trees in Wales and we have a big jump over that river......... Awesome pic, love it!!

 Hell yeah ! That is what I call screwing the toll to the troll , great pod, looks like a fun thread run in the creek boat to !
  • 1 0
 until you hit the pool at the bottom, my guess is 5 maybe 8 feet deep max and not enough volume to land or paddle out. I'd check it out and polly run it too .. but guess what, I ain't gunna mess with you cuz your my hommie just for saying the word Creek!!!!!!!!!

 INSannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnneeeeeeeeeeeee
  • 2 1
 F*ck. Yes. Such an awesome gap..
  • 2 1
 does he land on the shelf of rock or summit ????
  • 3 3
 Watch the video (link above). It's not half as good as you think. Yes pretty risky because of the drop but it's a straight jump with a straight run in. There's not *that* much that can go wrong.

Nice pic though.
  • 2 1
 hahah! you do it then Wink
  • 2 2
 I definately respect the rider for hitting it. It's a good size gap. All I am saying is that it's not in technical terms the hardest or most risky. To be quite honest, I would hit that no worries. Take a look at some of my pics, I have hit some pretty big gaps/drops. Just none of them are as scenic or over a river!

Props none the less!
  • 2 0
 mate, sorry but what?! theres no risk? urrm drowning? I dont plug your own pictures will you dis some elses
  • 1 1
 I have in no way plugged my own pics. I have none as spectacular as this, thats for sure. Its a good picture! All i am saying is that there is a nice straight steep run in, and its a straight jump of about 25ft. Point and shoot. You'd have to really get it wrong to fall down the gap itself. As i say a good picture!
