    Go on my son.
    Well done, excellent.
    Me and my USA fiancé a saving up for our specialized status 160 enduro bikes, even at age 52 and age 50.
    Like I told you she's an expert BMX flatlander. I'm an expert ADHD lunatic. Lol.
    We've almost finished re-shaping, raking all the trails, dirt jumps in Clyne Valley, Swansea City, Wales, UK. We've just got to trim the hedge growth back slightly over them with our petrol hedge cutters.
    They look awesome, new trails being build to, plus a 40 foot step down.
    We've re-opened and salvaged some old trails to. Their up and running.
    Excellent jump, it all starts with jumping off street curbs, to 40 feet dirt jumps at breakneck speed. That's how I started on Raleigh drop handle in the late 70's, then my Raleigh BMX burner in the early 80's off walls, car bonnet's (hood's), scaffolding planks and old kitchen doors on top of house bricks.
    Well done kid.
    God bless.

    I've hit the first gap on the pro-line, by far scariest jump I've done. After two successful hits on the first one we went down then back up for another lap. I was hyping myself up for the second 50ft gap. Then I proceeded to brake check the first gap and have the worst case of my life. Needless to say I called it for the day and thinking about it now, I don't think I will ever be comfortable riding jumps that big, just feels unnatural to me. Props to James for hitting them both. Its a huge accomplishment. Keep up the great videos!

    I loved watching you guys do a whole bunch of stuff that I will never ever do. It was inspiring, and it makes me want to go out and get on the bike. But I was almost brought to tears when you gave that kid all that wonderful stuff. You made his whole freaking month! I loved it.

    my longest was 30' on bmx, and now I am into mtb, and ive already dont a 28'. Going to do more gap drops now, hopefully can get a squishy frame soon. Running hardtail specialized pitch. Upgraded the HT, to press in EC44 to 1.5' converter on bottom bearing to convert it for tapered forks. Then stuck rockshox recon 130mm, with a stans no tube hugo front, and that was a massive upgrade. I run very high pressures in my forks, so when im doing drops or anything ill never bottom out. Running like 130ish psi in the fork. I just love mtb been doing it for about 5 months or so , and coming from 25 years in extreme sports, DH is literally the best feeling ever!
