If your taking orders, make it 1-1.5 metres further back from where it was. Good work on the maintainance. By the way, its Josh (glory dh1, neckbrace)

Now you're talkin' ;) Must agree, the trails out there are sensational.

yeah i know about the barrel i have spoken to some of the guys up there and there putting a jump where it was which might be better cause that barrel was a death trap, stop bitchin,start riding
I will admit the barrel was on occassions kicked around by passers by on the fire trail as it it only 10m in from it, as well as alot of other structures both dirt and wood, but when fixed it was a hoot. It took me 5 months to get the courage to hit it, but when I did I cleared the lander by a meter.
Not to say it's why someone pulled it out but don't change something because you can't hit it. All of the builders are on this forum so it only takes a few messages to get in contact with them and see what their opinions are of any changes you might suggest. You might even find some of us would be willing to come and lend a hand on a shovel:D
Also if any new riders are going to start building trails how about helping maintain the existing ones too. Scotty did some cleaning up of the berms on the main line today before I got there, GOOD JOB!!!
We have left a few shovels and rakes etc out there to do maintenance work from time to time so feel free to use them if you find them, but please don't take them home with you as I was told someone today was thinking about doing. Remember no tools no track work = crap trails

Hey man 2m would be sick I was toneing down my request as a compromise for those who didnt want it the jump bigger than the original. I mean 2m back from where the original take off was, are we thinking along the same lines or do you mean 2m back from the lander. In other words I am thinking the old gap plus 2m would be sick. (hope that makes sense) As for the berm I rekcon leave it flat, everything out at kentlyn is to smooth and flowy as it is, flat corners are the go, they make it more fun and harder. (rider219 will definatley agree.. I think:p) Any way thats my idea, anyone else got ideas.

The see-saw was smashed up by some disgruntled person/people about 12 months ago. Used to be fun, we don't go past the top of it anymore as it's pretty flat and boring beyond it now and it just means you have further to walk back up too:eek:

Why don't we make this the OFFICIAL KENTLYN THREAD so all correspondence can go through the same thread. Yeah Yeah, rename the thread title so people know where to go. Kentlyn is too well known now to try and keep it secret.
