Really really good vid guys - have never managed that last jump on the dj line at the start - good stuff! Any tips on making that last jump?

Also has someone fixed the see saw?

Cheers

It looks alot harder and scarier then it is, main tip is just land 6th smooth, take the little table pumpy thingy at a slight angle so u can use the landing of the jump next to it for a little extra speed, and then just hold on and stay relaxed and you'll glide it easily

Yep seesaw is fixed, we decided the other week it had been broken for too long so took hammer nails and a drill with us and fixed it up. If anything its stronger then before as theres now supports down to the ground as opposed to jsut a few bits nailed onto the downramp

Not sure what you mean by signposted ? like official ? if so yes but no, its been around for 15ish years, and well known and used alot, but noone claims responsibility for them, and noone quite knows who owns the land, but the police know of them and havent done anything . . . and its not like they are unknown as a hospital backs onto them, so there are cosntnatly people riding through the hospital to get to them

maintenance isn't too strong there, theres a few guys who do it, but they are more on the freeride side of things so havent realy maintained the dirt jumps. me and my mates have done a bit down there aswell to the broken shore and repairing a few of the jumps but getting down over winter was tricky so didnt get down as often as wed of liked, plan to do alot mroe this winter when one of us will be driving

Great vid, I live within a mile of there, I really need to get my Stinky together and come up there. If anyone has any spare brakes/discs/levers and gear leavers (or really really cheap) let me know, think I just about have everything else.

Sweet, looks really good, fast and flowing. Like the burns. Also reassuring to know the hospital is just next door if it all goes Peet Tong.
