Just a drop in geelong known as b line(I think). First time I hit it, it might not be big by most of your standards but big by mine. Not very good quality as taken by digital camera.

Nice man. roughly how high is it?

Im not exactly sure, guessed about about three meters to where I landed which converts to around 11 ft. I could be wrong through, The geelong riders should know

haha! sick man, you might want to slow down a bit next time. you basically have to wheelie drop that thing..
The actual drops about 8ft, but landing down the end of the tranny like that could easily have been 11ft..

next time I'll probably wheelie drop it, I was worried about going to slow and not being able to pull up enough. Almost flat landed it.

Best to take it nice and slow off B line.

Looks like u kinda missed the take off point, its on an angle to the drop. Sends you straight down the middle of the landing.

Nice effort though! :P

thats pretty cool. for some wierd reason that drop is better less travel :? or even on a hardtail its good. i hit it on my bighit and my p3 and the p3 was the smoother. i dont know it might just be that ion the p3 i am landing the drop were as the 8" travel isnt doing it for me. neway weel done. you should hit up a line (the slightly bigger one next to it) it is a way better drop as the tranny is way steeper but you got to go slow. keep it up.
