Bit of advice when it comes to dirt jumps....dont ride them wet! 2 reasons....1stly, it halves your speed. Causing crashes! (plus its slippery) 2ndly, if you case, the landings take a massive battering! If they are built well (the big line is), if you make the 1st correctly, you will make it thru the whole set without having to brake/pedal. Im assuming asbo is built by the same people... |

General rule of the thumb....if you can see your tyre tread pattern on the floor, its too wet! |
