I'd be glad to lend a hand on regular maintenance or working on stuff like you did the other day. I Feel that I owe more to the trails there than just picking junk up form the trail and parking lot as I find it....
Did you hit both kickers??

Both as in one by the treestand and the other by the deep gulley? If so then yeah.
Turned around in the clearing to go back to hit the one by the tree stand once...was smooth and maybe I am too old school BMX but I could handle a lip at the very edge or log half buried at the end as an extra kicker. Even first time off it though I was able to get enough comfortable air to put a tiny bit of style into the air.
The one into the gulley I didnt carry as much spped toward cuz it was so dark but it was a SWEET little kick to smoothly sail down into the much more smooth gulley. I enjoyed both thoroughly.
I know not everybody is into stuff like this but I for one love it and think it adds a new dynamic to the trail! Just plain fun
Don't lie, you know you pulled a big ol' dead sailor off of it.😀
Maybe I am too trail style bmx, but jumps should be smooth and if they kick you, they were either hit wrong or built wrong. I am sure j built em right though....

I am old and BMX was before it got all smooth and slick. When I used to race it was bang out of the gate, hit the tabletop for as much air (I know on the ground = faster) as possible and style it, kick the guy next to you in the berm and bang your way over the woops. I also used to jump every uneven sidewalk crack, curb, manhole, etc. I could find....no finesse I spose
J's jumps are super smooth for sure....
I rode at six today and at 7am, it was still frozen and was sooo nice, everything was perfect except for the usual areas.
The two lips were good, going away from 27, hit was smooth but the downside just isn't steep enough, fun though.
Coming towards 27, the hit was smooth and the downside is great! i always hit this one before and now it is even better, very fun! Looks like both lips with new reshaping by spring.
nice work j!
