RE: Off to the Ranch #29: DIY Wooden Berm | Bikepark build

in Outdoors and more2 years ago

Ah it’s been a long time since I’ve gotten to enjoy some nice mountain biking! We used to go and build stuff in the back of a trail and hop around it was a lot of fun. One day though I went over the handle bars and that was brutal. Nothing broken but definitely scared me lol. I even got it on my GoPro which was great!

Looks like a nice berm for sure. The dirt ones are okay but indeed a lot to maintain as they slough off. A wood one looks like a great idea!

Sort:  

Over the bars gotta be the scariest of the crashes 🤢 worse than washing out on a turn. You gotta pjt that on youtube xD

This berm worked great, but a bigger one would be definitely faster and safer (i don't want to fly over this one)

LOL I don't know if the footage survived. Sadly it was my old GoPro and for whatever reason leaving the SD card in the camera corrupted the things I had on there. I was pretty fucking pissed man! I had a bunch of cool photos on there, some awesome videos snowboarding in deep ass snow and what I'm most upset about is I had a few videos of my old car that I absolutely loved. It was this fast little car that had a beautiful loud sound to it. The damn footage all got corrupted and it's jumbled up now. Damn shame lol. I'm not bitter or anything... hahaha

Yeah I'm sure a bigger one would be better but it's good to start somewhere!

Damn! I know the feeling. I also lost a bunch of photos and a collection of 10.000+ classic rock and blues songs when my old pc toasted. It took that much pain to buy a backup hd. See, that's a modern day problem.. we don't print photos anymore or record videos on tape (that generally last for ever).
