Hey for some reason I like the under the lift feature.

Real -- Well ... I learned from your guidance. [lol]

Brtn -- That is getting to be pretty standard for me (under the lift and then dropping) -- I may have some new pics up tonight, as this is coming along pretty nicely (if I say so myself).

The best thing about this is going to be the compact design I have created, although it may not be an "airtime monster" as so many are fond of, the "thrill" will not be lacking.

Yea air is nice, but if the pacing is furious and there are some sweet lats, I think we can let you by in that category ;)

OK, some more pics ... heh. This is coming along really nicely. And oh yeah, the air decided to get a bit more intense ...

Smaller lead ins and lead outs. The hills look too parabolic. Not that its a bad thing, but it looks more like steel hills than woodie hills. Shorter leads will give you a more floater air feeling with quicker transitions that produce ejector pops.

Yeah, I was messing with that earlier, Real. What I was going for here was a more controlled feeling of air, sort of Cyclone-like, but without the trims of course. So, with some larger lead-ins riders have time to prepare, and then "pop", (surprisingly enough) there it is.

no, not at all like a weasle, more like your stomach when you mix pop rocks and coke, just like the poor kid from the life cereal box. God rest his soul.[xx(]
