Check this out. I can't even imagine hitting this jump, let alone on POS cruiser. Nutty.

Yup. Looks like he's going to case it. Or worse, he's going to auger-in on the short side.

Isn't the sun coming from the wrong direction (The shadows are coming towards the camera, but there is a reflection on the inside suggesting the sun is behind the camera)?

Yeah, looks fake. But look close at the first picture. Is that a Mavic DeeMax DH rim on the rear (or just a yellow rim)? If it is, that's cool; DeeMax's make any bike cool. If it's just yellow, I'm disapointed.

I don't think it's fake. Seems this guy was in a DJ contest at Sea Otter.

That thing probably isnt a sack of shit, mr. altagirl correctly noted that it has a Mavic Deemax rear wheel. So he probably knows what he is doing, at least somewhat.

Yep it was a deemax laced to a crappy coaster brake hub. I have no idea if he stuck the kiddie bike jump. Looks like he might come up a bit short though.
I think this guy might have as well.

He did stick it on the little bike. Sanjay is the mang for sure. and someone almost pulled a flip-whip, but cased the lander by a couple inches and got bucked.
and mushmouth, i suggest you take the advise of your signature. douche :rolleyes:

Oh yeah, forgot to mention that the winds were blowing at 30mph, making the jumps even nuttier

You guys ever seen the cruiser category guys at Downieville in the fall? Nutso...

The year I was there a couple years ago, the cruiser guy (coaster brakes mandatory) only lost to the pro DH winner by less than 10 minutes...something like 38 mins vs. 47 on a 16-mile downhill course with one 500ish-vert climb. NUTS.

Sanjay = faaaast mofo!

I had the priveledge of being passed by him at Collegiate Nationals in the DH race. He won by something like a hundreth of a second....and about 1 minute 5 seconds in front of me:D

Biking's flip-whip is to skiing's D-spin 720, except about a billion times ballsier. Holy fuck. :eek:
