Howdy ya'll

well after much deliberation i have finally decided to make a thread updating everyone of the progress being made at my private trails that we have aptly named "Heysie Ranch". We started building around about 4 or so months ago and have made a fair bit of progress since then. I'm just going to chuck up a heap of random photos but in time will post updated photos and stuff when new jumps get built...

Since these photo's were taken, the foam pit has been finished, the second line has been all cleaned up and completed, and a third line with a single (and a little larger) trick jump has been added...

All I need now is a pushbike...

I'm loving the look of those trowled lips! Did they stay that way, or did they crack?

I bet it is! Your progression is going to come a long way fast, I'm tipping.

Good work and add in some action shots A.S.A.P !!

yeah it was just a bit of a wild idea at the time but it worked out sweet, its just a fairly wet mix of mud, and the two jumps that we covered it in don't even have tire marks on them from where they have been jumped, rock hard. would definitely recommend doing it.
