Default Wrecker's Slash!

We have been hitting up some dirt jumps in the area with the slashes and it seems to be that the only way you can clear them and land right is to back flip it.
Lots of photos.
Basically a full stock slash, except some RPM carriers, knuckles and some losi shocks. Takes alot to get this thing down.

Saweeeeet!
I've been waiting to see these pics!

From the pics it's kinda hard to get a comprehension of just how big that jump is, so I'll share the specs. That was a 6' tall kicker, the slash was 8-10' over the top of it (standing on the top of the lip I could jump it over my hand reached as high as I could reach) and the gap was about 15' when I landed on the landing. When I actually hit the jump with speed it would gap about 25' and land on flat ground (or just smash into flat ground) from about 20' in the air, did that many times before I figured out I needed to go slower. To date the only thing that has broken is a stock rear bearing carrier, and we've hit those jumps at least 100 times and over shot/crash landed probably 75 of them.


...it's also got a MM 5700 system on 3 cell a123's.

we have yet to take any video at this spot. We usually don't even remember to get the cameras out because we're having so much fun. There's like 8-10 of these huge jumps at this spot. This one is the first (smallest) of a triple set,...haven't landed big aired out backflips on three in a row yet.

I give it a ten. Me and some friends went to a skate park with 2 slashes and one stampede and then proceeded to launch then off a quarter pipe.
I think we were getting pretty close to 30ft of air.
