went out to try and work on my cornering this morning and help out my buddy Jason who had bought my old demo8 on his quest to be a freerider...

some slo-mo video... kinda wish there was more normal speed to show the speed tho...
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid ... 3762&hl=en

(Hey, why can't i get the embedded video to work? putting this id (from above) between the google video tags just makes an empty player:
1075886010801653762)

anyhow, check out the stoke-age (as aqua would say)

Jason's first attempt... nailed it.

second run, a little rear heavy (and thank you demo8 for your eight inches of dhx inspired travel!)
Image

ahhhh, berms!
Image

pop out of it with authority!
Image

our next lesson, rock drop to tight berm...
Image

once again, jason pulls it off first attempt...
