Dude thanks for posting that Video haha I showed my boss at Family Cycling Center my rim and he hooked it up with a brand new D-Max Rim so we should go hit that thing again, but this time I'll clear it haha, first time was perfect just a little over cleared so I figured I give it a little less speed and then it didn't work out to well, but sick footage haha, dude you should message me your number and we should go riding, you can shuttle with me and my buddies to if you want

TylerPaget (Dec 1, 2011 at 20:00)

haha right on man! were going again this saturday around noon if you guys wanna cruise. thats sick you got a new front wheel hookup! as bad as your crash was im stoked i got it on gopro haha.

downhiller9000 (Dec 1, 2011 at 20:03)

Yah dude I have Nationals for swimming coming up next week so I don't want to get hurt before but after I'm so down, Yah dude I mean I wasn't even sore the next day, juts a few scratches, so not a biggie, just my rim was done haha, but yah dude send me your number in a message and I'll for sure call you up when we go riding in a couple weeks, yah the footage turned out great, and sick dj bike dude

downhiller9000 (Dec 2, 2011 at 18:33)

Dude i was checking my bike over and after looking at the video I don't think I cased it, my spokes were super loose so I think my rim just collapsed and it stopped my wheel from rolling cause in the video I'm clearly over the landing and I didn't think I went that slow off of it

TylerPaget (Dec 3, 2011 at 17:34)

thanks i love that dj. and yea it looked like you landed fine idk how that happen haha

mwSLUGmtb (Dec 5, 2011 at 10:08)

YES ITS REBUILT!!!!!!!!!

stumper21 (Dec 5, 2011 at 19:48)

hey when was this cause i was there like a month and half ago and that was not there.

mwSLUGmtb (Dec 7, 2011 at 10:31)

Its pretty recent. I was there with my buddy about a month ago and we talked to a guy who wanted to rebuild this drop, he was taking measurements.

stumper21 (Dec 7, 2011 at 15:44)

not bad i will have to go and check it out.

anguswyatt (Mar 7, 2012 at 11:16)

Whoa, thanks for posting this. Glad you both came out OK in the end.

I know it says "came up a little short", but it looked OK by watching at 00:32 - weird.

So, is this pretty much the same size/height/distance/speed as the previous/destroyed one? I guess I'll have to go see it myself soon.

downhiller9000 (Dec 3, 2011 at 10:59)

Yah it looks like I cleared it but my spokes just exploded, they were a little loose so my wheel just bent out of shape haha, yah it shoots you a little more up than the previous one but still fun

Glad you guys were okay after that. FYI was there Sun and a sketchy dude in a gray sweat shirt was walking around with a bucket on his cell most of the time. Seemed like was was scouting it out and telling someone about I over the phone. Thought I saw a hammer or hatchet in in bucket. There were a bunch of us there. Tried to be friendly with him, but he wasn't too smiley. Someone said he mentioned the landowners bellow the zone don't like us there. Shoulda taken a photo of him. Hope the new shit isn't cut down by next week....

ghammack (Dec 7, 2011 at 22:35)

goat377 (Dec 1, 2011 at 0:35)

How'd he hang up? Look like he was okay, then somehow bent his rim? or did the rim just crush on impact and stop him?...nice catch on film

TylerPaget (Dec 1, 2011 at 8:04)

we were both able to walk away unscathed and he just came up a little short and tacoed his front tire. stoked i was wearing my gopro haha
