yeah mate, i was the dude who rode the Rocky Mountain Switch at kenilworth (on the build day), you probably remember me as the really slow guy who is too pussy to hit the big jump, you ride the chumba f5 right? Yeah, i was thinking about taking some dirt out from the middle of each jump, (to form a gap). Also, we could remove the small little stuff from some of the sides (whoops etc.) and use that dirt to create bigger lips etc.
I know that the council may also not be up for giving us dirt, it would just be a bonus if they did. However as already said i think that we could use dirt from the current jumps. I am up for digging into the jumps for some bigger doubles, i am getting sick of going their and riding the same old tables. I dnt really ride with to many people, i usually ride with tate and cameron, but on occasions i ride with with anthony and dan (anthony rides an ironhorse sunday and a Haro thread).
Instead of completely knowcking down the trees (it will raise some complaints from the old people in the area,) we could try to use some dirt to make a small pumptrack varying around the trees and stuff.
All in all it will take a while but we could try to get council to contribute for some more dirt and to take out some trees.
I also know that their is a professional bmx djer (or was) who is a member of the council and we could try to persuay him, we could probably do it. As you said Sam, their might not be machinary because of the cost, but it is pretty possible as a 'shovel and barrow' job. (if we have a decent number of peeps).
If possible i could try to send a request for council etc, but i will try to organise a day where we could turn up and give the jumps a fix etc.
If anyone disagrees with this, please pm me.
Also be noted that sundial is a large park, and this project will take the course of a few months, so dont expect it to all happen in one day,
CHEERS,
Sam.
