Well, after a newspapershot of our club with seven riders at the event having only a pic of two of them, 2 of us in the paper for the Terry Fox run, me running behind the uni (i just bailed from a one footer), things finally worked out.
I didn’t measure it, but it is 4+ feet for sure. (I’ll find out for sure though) It was a little trickier than my last ‘biggest drop’ as I had to make sure I cleared the ‘steps’
Anyways, we were doing a show at the Children’s museum, and this drop maded the evening news (although this is not the news video, and is actually a different jump, both looked the same though)
It’s nice seeing yourself on TV acheiving a personal best
Nice drop! I did my biggest (pretty much my first actually) drop down stairs yesterday. It was a sidehop down a steep set of 6…great fun, but I can’t imagine how people could even consider doing 13!
I have now tried riding down some deeper stairs. It’s a lot easier compared to less steep stairs. You won’t even notice the bumps with a fat tire. And remember to lean forward. Leaning back kills you. Or atleast you end up sitting on the stairs.
