Ha! I didn't have hills like that where I grew up. Though if I did, I probably would have jumped off of at least one of them.

Besides, mom will get pissed if you come home with blood on your clothes from your boo-boos...

True true. I've finally gotten old enough that all those years on motorcycles and bicycles and skateboards have caught up with me. I never did try very hard to one-up anybody though...I've seen what happens when you do and fail.


By no means was I trying to get the kid to fling himself off of a mountainside, just nudging him out of his comfort zone a little. It keeps things exciting and helps advance your dirt wheeling skills.

I was !
Although I can attest, mountain side flingage is no fun... The further out you fall, the longer you will experience free fall. It sucks when you have your ass on the back tire and just tapping the front brakes send you over the bars.

It's also shitty when your making that " aaaahhh " sound during free fall and run out of breath before actually hitting the ground.

Aaaaahhhhh... Run out of breath, of shit... Aaaahhhh again... Then impact as you break your sternum with own chin.

Yeah, and then you bounce and roll down the landing about 30 feet.

Oh I didn't bounce at all, it was a complete dead stop. At least if I bounced it would have scrubbed off some of the speed and force of impact.

Bumbles bounce.
