these goofs show up to merritt, tear down our jumps, build a huge hip, hit it 5 times and tear it down. all that dirt was from a dialed set of huge dirt jumps. and they talk about helping the sport move forward...

Erikson (Jul 26, 2012 at 19:47)

is that really what happened? i mean as sick as the hip is thats kinda f*cked up if they just tore down someone elses jumps to build it and then tore it down right after like u said

luke31 (Jul 28, 2012 at 10:41)

Sorry, gotta agree. dont do shit for the sport when you tear down the only good jumps a town has to session one jump than tear it down as well. More like promote, promote, promote.

Erikson (Jul 30, 2012 at 8:49)

ya that just seems really counter-productive to the progression of the sport. in the sense that the up and comers would be left with nothing to ride

ustemuf Plus (Aug 2, 2012 at 12:19)

that's messed up.

bigburd (Oct 5, 2012 at 2:25)

Thats fucking awfull man , I'm truly shocked that riders would tear down your jumps to make thier own , if they were my jumps they wrecked I would crack thier heads open with some thing blunt and heavey. Truly gutted as vanderham WAS one of my fav riders , but knowing he can do this to other people works is totally unacceptable..

norcovpsshore (Nov 4, 2012 at 23:54)

To be fair I think it was Vanderham and the anthill boys that built those jumps originally for Seasons, so really they can do what they want with them. It does suck if they were popular but thats why new places are always being built

rippin-norco (Jun 26, 2012 at 20:37)

sure, it is possible to make it bigger. It would be impossible to hit at that point though, he would break whatever came first, his wrists and ankles, or his bike.

he is those kind of guys who think they can do everything and than it ends on a faceplant or is he just fooling around?

Peanutthenut (Jul 11, 2012 at 13:33)

I don't know, but lets admit it would be even radder to see that hip bigger!

rippin-norco (Jul 26, 2012 at 9:52)

no, I think people from Canada just don't like you. Peanutthenut commented pretty much the same thing as you, and got props for it.

Erikson (Jul 26, 2012 at 19:45)

haha rippin-norco is right. but to cappsy, we should all be licking out vanderhams "bum hole", hes part of the reason mountain biking exists in the way it does today so i say he deserves a good rim job!

rippin-norco (Jul 26, 2012 at 20:53)

I don't think he would like that.

Erikson (Jul 27, 2012 at 22:26) (Below Threshold) show comment

you just gota do it the way he likes it

rippin-norco (Jul 28, 2012 at 1:18)

Not at all? Thats how I like it atleast.

Erikson (Jul 30, 2012 at 8:50)

im not sure just exactly how he likes it but ill ask next time i see him

Rider-of-many-bikes (Aug 30, 2012 at 13:36)

The only thing I’d ever give a "rim job" to is my bike.

rippin-norco (Aug 31, 2012 at 14:08)

bikes don't have bum holes, don't be silly.

WillMTBIrvine (Sep 1, 2012 at 3:43)

the seat post tube is clearly the arsehole of a bike...

DaninBC (Sep 1, 2012 at 10:50)

bjorntsc (Jul 8, 2012 at 20:06)

Why one everyone hits a massive jump do they say that they "defy gravity." Saying that someone defies gravity is one of the stupidest things to say; it is like saying a snuffaluff*gus exists.
