Title: Conquered :: Ramp city pics
Post by: Jaymz on August 26, 2012, 09:33 PM
Last year I went to ramp city, my first time in a indoor play area!! And all i wanted to do was conquer the big roll in that they have in the corner by the time I left, which eventually I did.
So this time I wanted to go off the roll in and attack the jump box at the end instead of swerving around it like a girl like last time.
So with still painful wrist and dodgy hip and wini's help we egged each other on, and snavs lad was ready with the camera to capture the action

No its not elegant, or big air, but its the first time I've ever ridden out and over a quarter, and considering my roll of falling off recently, and my confidence being blown, Im proper happy

Cheers Mark for the confidence boost

So for the stupid in the room, you're telling us you CLEARED the top flat surface of the jump-box and landed on the down-side ramp on your first attempt at it Jaymz?

Fooking hats off if you did mate as i've had a good few goes over it and not come close to actually clearing the box.... Been about 3 foot in the air off the bad boy and done some nice table tops over it but landing on the other ramp is a massive leap bud.

Nice one!

Post by: Peter J on August 29, 2012, 02:45 PM
Yep still hurts now  :'(

And I still haven’t got my bottle back  :'(

It wasn’t the most stylish spine transfers on the account of my fat ass  :2funny:

I stood up there with Spen and Si and Rich Clean......Noooooo chance I was going to do that  :idiot2:

Here's Jay on his way down from one of his jumps that where before he cleared it  :daumenhoch:

Unfortunately my lad was all over the place with the camera so missed the moment Jaymz went clear  :laugh:

There's no way it was cleared at that height ^^^

Found an old pic from the side of it, there's a quarter up against the side of the jump box but you can see the landing

That's my son about three years ago, he was still casing it then
