My stomping ground is Booker T Washington State park quite a mouthfull so just the park. Generally we go ride the three and a half mile trail and then go into the park area and look for jumps or drops or whatever. Anyways a crazy friend of mine that rides this piece of crap Walmart full suspension bike that only has like six working gears shows me this gap. I hadn't seen it before and i was hyped on doin it so we started trying it. Well first off Jimmy (crazy friend) Tells us he can clear it, neither me nor my brother believe him so he says okay ill prove it. He gets back like 500 ft or so and gets going fast and clears this thing perfectly about four feet in the air and the gap is ten or more feet. After trying it many times and not making it all the way the next day we bring a friend that isn't so crazy to try it. All of us bust bad. The thing about this gap is its concrete in the middle and little four foot grass ramps up either side to the road. So in order to jump it you have to do a little drop about three or four feet before the grass ramp and then you hit it goin freakin fast. My brother goes first and does sort of this flair over it, it looks cool until he finds out that he can't right himself. He digs his left pedal in, stops, and hits his mouth on his bar ends (he just got braces). My friend Ryan sees it and decides to go for it what the heck. He jumps and doesn't pull the front up at all so his front wheel is like two feet off the ground and his back wheel like eight feet. He flies like Superman still clipped to his bike and eats dirt. My turn great i jump and don't clear it so i spin in air like 180 degrees and land on my back and mash my head on the ground. Dang!! that hurt like heck i was wearin a helmet though so i was happy bout that. Weasle
