Well.. Haven't been up to much lately but building.. Finaly starting to get some rides in again since Knee Surgery.. Was up at Calgary Outdoor Show.. and had a Blast! but kept it chill... Just trying to get used to the big bike again.. got some new big things lined up for this season.. You guys have seen too much skatepark and dirtjumping photos from me.. it's time for some big stuff! (am I right?)

So here are some pics.. Tested the hip out this morning.. didn't work out too good.. Darrell and Derek.. you were right.. to some degree! if the landing is buffed higher it'll be doable.. if not we have to bring in the lip..

Anyways! Enjoy...

New Hipper! Lip is about 10 feet tall.. then gap over bush, maybe 10?

The hip is all wierd. The landing is too far to the left of the takeoff.

You said it.. the hip is at a way too acute angle.. and it shot me too high to bring it back.. i'm thinking tomorrow i'll rebuild the lip and see how things go!
