I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
 Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
 Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
 Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!'

Only done them in to the foam pit, did land them on to a sheet of ply but the bottle tends to go on the jump box  :(

when you do i want a video camera at hand

its a you've been framed moment if ever there was one!!!

good luck riding with the coaster. i run a freehub for ages then decided a coaster would be better.
i bought a suntour coaster hub, laced it into a wheel, and rode it for 30 seconds. then took it off again and put it on the shelf.
i couldnt even hop up a kerb without locking the rear wheel. (dordy knows what i mean there)

Great videos mate.
Just a thought. I've never had a coaster brake in my life and i do drop ins all the time. Try putting the foot on the front pedal. Much scarier but at the same time easier.  8)

When the coaster graphites broke I decided to run with spokes, and try a freewheel, well I tried a front pedal drop in and landed on my head from about 10ft  :D

It wasn`t an old school one, it was a set that I got direct from Skyway about a year ago, I have got some pics somewhere, when I find them I`ll put them on  ;)

Bill They were great. I'm glad to see a vid where not everyone is pulling mad framewhip backflips. That's more my level. I wish I had a few people like that around me here for self confidence.
You must be mad to even try backflips. Theres not a hope I would even think about it.
The vanderoll and backplant did make me piss myself tho. Very entertaining. well done

Totally awesome videos  :)

I have just sat here with total admiration watching you guys on those ramps and that foam pit looks great too. We have nothing like that down here so I don't get much chance to ride ramps any more though I would love the opportunity

You guys are soooooooooooo lucky . . . . . . . . . . and I am soooooooooooo jealous  :'(
