manny pad is more like it, love manny bonks on trails, remember gotta flow, so no stair sets (which are pointless to stack up when it is just a gapped drop to flat really)

same with flatbanks, just hard, and no flow...


Manny pad is a good shout though, anything else, cool wallride shapes, just need inspiration, some sort of ridable sculpture you have seen, or plain old features im forgetting (like manny pads)

Gap to curved wall? so like a berm but with a gap between the transition into it and the back part?

you need to twist it, otherwise they won't cross properly.

I use Arsenalfalcos how-to on all of my wheels, I'd say the best one on youtube.

X-up bar =no street

get out of here! x-up bars are real! do em whatever way gets em around don't stress whether they look like chad kerleys. huge pet peeve of mine, when someone complains that something they landed was "sketchy" and wants to film it again. f*ck it boi it all adds character grow a set
