That's an awesome idea to get me over the 'fear of the gap'!

Great idea. I don't attempt these things as it always feels as if your front wheel is going to hit the wrong side of the other side (leg?) and then you're over the handlebars.

I'd love to have something like that to learn on. Gives a chance to roll over, then gradually build confidence skill etc.
Great work, wish it was in my garden.

That looks do-able and fun.

Jedi there are a number of jumps near me that have near vertical take off lips (kickers is it?), can't get my head around them as I'm all out of shape on the take off and end up landing completely wrong, any tips?

Think of buying a spade to do some works in my local woods.

Joolsburger, where usually do you ride? I had some problems at sharp take-off too...

Steep take offs usually hav e steep landings so you need a 2nd push to land them. Mellow jumps only really require the initiual push,same as a drop

would be great to see a video of you jumping that. I dont have the confidence to hit them or really even know how to jump one.
