i love making a 26 rapier

that is the worst idea ever. Don't take his advice kids. I was riding down one of my trails today, and the trail angle suddenly changes so you can't see what is ahead, my front wheel fell into a waist deep one of those - I went flying like 5 feet. I hurt now, alot.

Don't make them unless your willing for somebody to dig them unexpectedly into a blindspot of your trail so that you'll hit them.

ya but we thought of this for a single dj that has been rebuilt 20+ times because kids have destroyed it.
we even put the scare of god into their little *ag bodies (pardon my french) by making the trany filled with rocks so when they hit the raper it shoots them onto the rocks head first...... and it makes the jump harder to destroy.

you have to make your own hidden trail in a wooded area. It takes alot of work but if you get some fellow riders that just want to ride its not to bad. plus you can make anything you want

You're a jerk. How bout' putting that effort into paving the faces of the jump and landing with the rocks so it lasts for years. You are going to get sued. I'm taking a sports law class right now. The only sure-fire way to create liability for yourself is to intentionally create a hazardous situation. If the trails are illegal you don't own them. Hide them better, come up with some decent ideas, get permission to build, or give up. If I ever ran into you I'd give you a serious earful. I'd make you cry.
