Rode Fort Bill on friday (Until the gondola got shut) and were going to ride sat too, but it was shut all day.

The top section has a fair few larger features than last time, and also that roadgap lander is actually a lot steeper than the photos show.. It's got to be a 45 degree lander straight into a loose left hander which isn't actually that bermed up, it's quite flat tbh!

Also, can't believe i bottled the double inbetween the two tables.. I was clearing the first table, just didn't have the balls to jump the double.

if you were clearing the table you would have had a good chance of clearing the double as well. Did the table still have a dodgy lip on it that threw the back end up real bad or is it now a bit sweeter ?

I had couple of heavy landing at the double - not pleasant. This was due to not clearing the dodgy lipped table. I will try harder next time.

My mates were complaining that they were getting bucked on the takeoff of the table, but i found it a good takeoff making it nice and smooth. To be fair, they were on proper DH bikes, and i was on a giant reign X..

Last run down and i was going to go for the double, but i hung up on the tabletop, so i braked before the double and tried to manual it badly.

But what i dont understand that i didnt have the balls for that double, but i cleared the coffin jump at inners yesterday.. :/

and the boy who took this video just came off at FB yesterday (14/8/11). Broken lower right ribs, punctured right lung and a head injury. Winched up to a gondola, taken off in ambulance to FB hospital.

Be respectful to the FB hill or it will bite you!!

May even get his GoPro footage of that to post on.

Holy Crap.... that just fills me with confidence... I wish him a speedy recovery...... I think I will be stopping at parts and getting off and walking over them....
