Hey guys these are our kind of freshly dug trails, we've been working on these after school and weekend for the past few weeks and there finally getting to be jumpable.

I had a thread going on "When is steep to steep?" and have taking all your advice and made what I think is the perfect lip ( talking about the big one).

We've been thinking of names for a little while but did'nt have much luch untill this morning when one of our mates thoght up boardwalks as our roll in is kind of a boardwalk, not sure if the name will stick but aye I reckon it sound alright.

But the main plan is to have a big 2-pack and a small 3-pack by the end of the holidays.So give me your thoughts on whats good and improvments we can do.

i like looking at sick dj's eg these :)

a 2 pack and a 3 pack....... so u want to make one double by its self, and then a double with a lip after it with no down ramp sounds a bit weird..i think u might be thinking of a 4 pack-2 doubles, and a 6 pack-3 doubles. anyway ur jumps r sick i would like to c a pic of how high u get off the big one

Good work!
Great to see people building quality trails.
Hows the rideability of the bigger lip?
Looks very thin at the top, and rather steep in relation to the size of the gap.
What sort of speed is it being hit at?
Overall great work though hey.
Cant wait to see more progress!

Well the rideability of the big lip is yet to be confirmed as it's yet to be riden but it can be hit pretty dam quick if thats what we need. And yes it is pretty thin so it's going to be fattened up sometime this week.

And to padstow we've been building them for the past 3-4 weeks, all by hand so if your up our way and you see kids with big digging muscles its us!

Progress pic well come as time goes on, and i'll try get some diferent angles as my mum tryed to get a bit arty with the ones she took.

A descent set of jumps. Props for the amount of work that went into them (judging you used wheel-barrow and shovel).
It's the young lads like you who help give mtb'ing a good rep, spending countless hours on the end of a shovel - digging and shaping.

WOW, they are sweet as jumps. Are you two neighbors or something, cause I like the little ramp over the fence really cool. Can't wait to see some action pics, they should be sweet as.

Nice work guys, keep it up. :D
