not yet, were in the process of clearing it out. i put another pic up of where the landing will be, and with the slope of the hill it makes it about 15.

were set to hit it sunday depending on the weather, and thats when ill have footage. i took a couple more pictures of the renevation of the landing, theyre blurry but it gives you the idea. we had to take out a few trees and hoist them over a 10 foot wall into a river, and it wasnt much fun. but anyway. sunday hopefully ill have the video.

ok. my cousin hit the drop twice, got it on film, but my computer went shitty a few weeks back and crashed and now i cant upload my movie yet, but soon i will.

the snow did make it tricky but he pulled it off, and he landed nowhere near where he wanted to. (..yet.. just wait for the snow to melt)

and no its not snowy all year round. we live on the east coast in the states, its just winter. and yea we just use the same tires as always..he had a gazzalodi and an intense on the bike he used. he runs like 10lbs in each..but it worked.

video soon!
