thats lookin sweet like, how much pedalling does it really need though? like after the last berm is it a case of rolling in from there or do you still need to crank it a bit??

i usually pedal to cruising speed to corner then 2 more hard pedal strokes. the corner it self seems to be a good gauge for speed, to make it fast but comfortably round the round the corner usually means you are at ramming speed, but 2 extra pedal strokes seems to work well for me

Pause it at 0:14 seconds, it looks like there is a board sticking up onto another one, therefore leaving a gap in the landing

Lol, i kicked up the board and mic ran right over the top, quite lucky, could have been worse. We added a few extra nails afterwards.

i think i have to do it now ive wanted to for so long, just go as fast as you can yeah?

yup, and dont pop it at high speed just let the speed take you over, after that you can start slowing down on take off and popping it once you have sussed it all out
