[K-Loops Rider]

It's at least 10'4", if you factor in the fact that he's obviously BUSTING HUGE and landing several feet down the tranny.

[playahata]

[Cooper]

[waterfall99]

thanks for the great reply's! should be a good drop by the looks of it, might be able to get some action shots of it as long as i tank it on the landing.

[Porkchop]

looks sick brandon i should come out tomorrow and possibly lend you a hand with the landing or something.

[Jamie_k]

i was pretty disapointed when i looked at the pictures and it did actually look 12 feet.
pinkbike ruler you have failed me.

[bowen rocks]

sick drop brandon, if he says it's 12 feet then it probably is, he doesn't seem to lie

[the_undertaker]

I ALWAYS try to bust my drops huge so i can claim them a couple feet bigger than they are!

[Kossinnd]

looks huge! I want pics of the sendage!

[Jerry-Rig]

I hope your not a sponsored rider or nailing into live trees.... ;-)

[waterfall99]

Haha!, no im neither of that.

[jcole]

30 years ago, nailing into trees was considered a forest saving act.

Anyways, that looks like an honest 12 feet. The top of my tractor/trailer is 13 feet, so that looks like 12.

[freakonaleash]

Yea take brandons word for it its 12. Stoked to come hit this thing :D I think ill come help you tomorrow

[Bicycle]

Sweet location

[Dantes Inferno]

If its 12 feet that means it can be freerided at least 16 feet to tyranny.

They've probably got about 1 hour to get their little gnome hands dirty and mom will be calling from the back deck, "dinner is ready".

[waterfall99]

Got somemore done today, might go back in abit to finish it up but so far so good. Heres the progress:

[Dantes Inferno]

How tall is that grom? If hes shorter than 6" its not a 12 foot drop.

[Marsenault]

Holy shit, who cares.

[Cooper]

looking sick guys, now its about time to make that landing steeper? Or maybe the pics dont do it any justice

[C.Lee]

you are taking it bigger than part breaker

[waterfall99]

Hey, yeah the landing is super butter now, we built it up a bit and made it steep, too dark out for pics, but tomorrow weel have an update along with some action shots and possibly a video.

[bowen rocks]

[freakonaleash]

Lookin good bud... cant wait to see ya hit it. I may cruise the old race bike down but i got a whole bunch of shit to do to my truck to get it ready for monday

[Hoodlum]

[Heathen]

[littlemountainmike]

[Dantes Inferno]

Holy shit, who cares.


Someone has to try and make them feel bad.

[waterfall99]

Im pretty sure he was trying to shut you fools up who keep trying to say the drop is smaller that what it is.

[littlemountainmike]

I believe its 12 feet:woot:

[partbreaker]

you are taking it bigger than part breaker

the zee mountain bike yes, on zee ladies, i highly doubt it.

[Porkchop]

partbreaker your so lame dude lol but your thread is priceless

[Marsenault]

Im pretty sure he was trying to shut you fools up who keep trying to say the drop is smaller that what it is.

Bingo. If you say its 12' I'm sure its about 12'. Ive done a drop that was measured 16' but looks around 12' in pics. All I'm saying is, pictures can be deceiving. Also, this guy is out there building....he's not some troll on the NBR board. You guys should be giving him props instead of throwing accusations at him.

[BoostedXT]

so much for encouragement and growing of the sport....go out there and rip it man. If I were you I would tape measure it and show the height...:)

[dEVoRider]

cool beans, let er rip!
