I'm sure lots of people could build more stunts like that - IF they tapped into live trees!

WTF are these grommit builders thinking? Wanna get your stuff torn down or hated by the community? Tap into live trees!

cutting trees down isnt cool but tapping a nail into a tree? its not gonna kill the thing if theres 3 inches of nail in it!

That guy used to be on this board. I remember him saying that this stuff is on his neighbours property so it is not illegal or anything. Why do you care if that property owner lets him kill a few trees; there are still plenty billion left.

OK there, Ghandi.

Have you ever seen how many thousands of trees get killed by forest fires, or even for your house. Ever see how much clearcutting there is going on?

Nailing into a few random trees in the woods won't make much of a difference with the hundreds of thousands (or millions) of trees being cut down for people's needs.

k you guys should calm down, i know some people who helped in this project and its damn good, they arent using the citys land, they bought theyre own land, and im pretty sure you can do whatever the hell you want when its yours. and only like 10 people know where it is and its very secret and in a remote location outside of edmont so not many people are gonna be riding it. just thought id clear up abit of things..

Um, actually no. The house you live in was made from thousands of trees that have died. Nailing a few nails into a few trees kills 0. Most things around us have been made by killing trees. No one that made those stunts have done anything wrong. Oh no, they put a nail into a tree; cry me a river, bitch.

your retarded. you don't even know what your talking about. shut up.

nailing into trees DOES kill the trees. and more importantly, poses huge danger for loggers.

next time do your homework, bitch.

Dude, you raise a valid point, but keep the personal attacks down man, that's just a highway to bannination. Not that I'm a mod, just feel like the last little bit was just uncalled for.

Not trying to start a war or nothing Barry, but i dont think that thoes privatly owned trees are gonna get logged any time soon. all though i do agree that the supports on that stunt will not last long. also i belive that we all have been over the nailing into live trees topic on the trail building board quite some time ago, and i belive that it was a multi page argument.
