Turnbull Canyon The Ridge Jumps Santa Cruz Nomad Sept 07

The last jump kind of throws you in a wheelie but its better than landing head first. The noise your hearing is that the nomad has too much flex in the rear end causing the tire to rub.

Great job shooting this shot

Is this the pass next to the road ?

[bikemuscle]

yeah but its all gone now and its also over grown. I've gave up in that place, its fun once in a while but I like Aliso Woods better. They have hot chicks and sweet trails, and its by the beach.

How good is the Nomad for that kind of freeriding!? Seems burly enough to hold you man! Tell me how the landing feels? Flex? tire rub? How about the rear shock? Enough travel?

[bikemuscle]

The nomad is ok, when set up correctly. The biggest problem I had was with the pivots. I sent my first frame back after 7 months of riding and Santa Cruz sent me a new frame because the pivot areas where not alligning properly. The second frame is doing the same but this time Santa Cruz is willing to upgrade me to the 2008 V10 but they are charging me the difference. Once I get it I'll post the video clips. If you want a 6" bike look at the new slopestyle by Intense.

hey Im starting to jump a little ramps and i want some tip about it. how many kinds of ramps exist? what is the technic on each one? what could i do on the air to correct my position?

[nubb1337]

Just a tip; if you go into a wheelie when you're in the air tap the back brake. It will lower your front end a little bit.

[joeltheasshole]

It isn't flex. It's your tire hitting your seat.

That wernt the best landing tho

[chloroxjello]

Isn't that the place were all the supposed sketchiness goes down? Looks fun, I'll have to hit it up when I'm down there.

[ThatOneKidThatSkis]
