Hey this is a thread for all of the riders and builders of RGC. This is where you can post when you're headed there next to build or ride, as well as just general talk about it. Thought it might be a good mediator between everyone.
I'll start it off, I'm headed up tommorrow, friday July 4th for pretty much the whole day to give the jumps some love (the step-up's pretty beat) as well as a solid session.
Im not bitching any one out or pointing fingures, but it sure seems theres a hell of alot more people who ride them then build them, dj's are a 50/50 ride work thing, last time I was there I just wanted to leave, they were horrible, Plus I the people I ride with put any work into them it gets destroyed, case it point, Finally get the set dialed some one mellows out the lips, the new step up is destroyed since i guess some one didnt like it, Wypers pissed about that one for good reason he spent hours on something it took some one 3 mins to change, and for the worse.
slight rant but im tired of people changing shit, The reason I use to drive to RGC was to get away from the grom fests and the jump modifications that follow them, but it looks like the've manned up more now to ride them, Time for a new set soem were else.
Reminder not ranting at any indiviual since no one seems to jumps RGC alone.
I completely agree, I went on wednesday and the step-up, like you said is practically destroyed. The wood reinforcement on the landing has been pushed over and there has been like a solid foot of dirt from the landing just pushed back, it's ridiculous. I'm not sure I'll be able to set the wood back up, But I'm going to try and get most of the dirt back to where it was before, as well as buff the lip a bit and maybe smooth out the run-in.
I only had like 2 hours on wednesday so we kinda just threw a bit of dirt here and there on the small line, but todya I'm gonna try and start really fixing some stuff, and maybe fill in a few small holes in the big set.
But i completely agree, there need to be more people contributing to keeping the place in good shape as well, instead of just ridning and leaving
So we did a huge overhaul on the step-up today, got er back to at least very good working order, though the lip still needs a bit done to it. Buffed the small line, all the jumps are good, but pretty much only drained water from the big set and threw some dirt here and there. I'm super ticked though, hung up an NFC on the small set and concussed myself, so I won't be up at least until after Whistler (wednesday till saturday or Sunday), though I might make it up to do some building before then, we'll see.
Umm that's all I can think of off the top of my head at the moment, I'm still a bit out of it.
i jump rgc alone all the time haha and yes i agree with mitch people always change shit and it jsut makes the jumps worse and this is a message to mitch the step up is now fixed thanx to helping hands like dustin.
