    well since i just got my 200x done, i took it out last weekend for some fun. I was hitting a 15 foot tall metal kicker ramp with about a 15 foot gap. It was awesome. my buddies do it on their dirt bikes and they finally convinced me to try it so It was my first time to try it. The landing was smoother than any little jumps i have ever taken. It is a incredible feeling.

    if anyone in washingtonton has gone to Buena, you know of some of the jumps near the loading dock. When, i was coming down the hill, about 35-40, just crusing in 5th gear. I see the truck, and took a small shortcut. Well, i ended up cutting across the mx track, and hit a huge tabletop, probably 6ft tall, and flew over 20 ft. It was very cool, even though i was totally freaked since i wasn't prepared. if i wasn't going that fast, i wouldn't have cleared the whoops, and would have had to bail. I got near 10-12 ft of air. The touchdown was bad. It had its nose in the air, and landed rear first. The back bottomed out, and slammed the front down. Thank god for those bar pads. :-D
