7 Springs DH Bike Park... riden by amatures

The place is seven springs, a moderate level and really smooth freeride park in PA. Definatly great for those who don't like rock gardens, because there arn't any (well, there are a few, but the point is it's a great user friendly park). Place is full of tabletops and easy hips, ranging from 5ft to I believe 30ft, it also has a very nice long set of sweeping burms (not featured in this video). Wooden platform is 25ft - 28ft

Crazy, the video really does not do justice the step up you almost cleared or the size of the table tops at the end... the vid makes them look half the size they really are!

@TheSBimage

Yeah I know! Video KILLS the size of things. On top of that I used a wide angle lens on the wooden table gap which makes it look like a wimpy 15 footer. It's no small gap I'll tell you that much!

Do you put your arm-pads on top of your cloths or under??

[StuartHaight]

Some people will wear them over under-armor, I just wear them directly on my arm and depending how the trail is I'll wear a short sleeve or long sleeve shirt. Plus it tore that day. It may not look it but I am wearing armor under that shirt, a basic 661 pressure suit, I always wear a shirt over it, it keeps it snug and in place because I'm skinny. I'm also wearing shin pads, I always wear jeans.

Sense you appear to be [moto]crosser, MX guys wear shells which go over the jersey, mostly.

Nice video, what kind of bikes you guys ride?

[StuartHaight]

Dennis: stock mongoose diamondback triple, 7in front (marz 66) and 7in rear.

Me: riding a replacement 06' yakuza kumicho frame, with random parts and marz 888 from old frame, 8in rear 6.7in front.

You can hit 7 springs with a jumping hardtail, watch one of the related videos by DHProdLLC, the stuff there is really smooth!

[ryanpkerr5]

do you think these trails and jumps would still be good with a hard tail?
