trails >> Santa Cruz >> UCSC

Max, the resident local, shows us how to do it.

James hits it next.

And again.

Then it's my turn. I only hit it once, as I didn't want to press my luck without my full-face helmet. Not only that, but I am running XC tires, and my rear rim is a XC rim. Possibly the biggest gap I've done, and I did it on my trail bike!

These shots taken in the UCSC Santa Cruz area, on a trail called "Dead Campers." It's a good sized road gap/ stem down with a perfect landing. At the bottom of the runout however, is a sharp berm that takes you to the left. Unfortunetly, our point and shoot cameras weren't up to the task with the low amount of light we had.
