Whipper, I finally got tired of seeing my name on the wall so I got McCoy to video a jump. I thought I could just take a screen shot and have it turn out as a good quality picture but the quality is terrible:



That should look better than my name on the wall though for now until I get a better picture.

But, you need to put McCoy's name up there. Yesterday we were full throttle through some of the trails. I looked back and all I saw was the underside of McCoys Argo as it flew through the air.

We didn't get any video of that one though but maybe if you put his name up there it will encourage him to do it again.

I did have my seat belt on this time! I learned my lesson the first time when I cracked my head on the roll bar

Whipper ,

Thanks for the invite , but you won,t be seeing my Max IV flying through the air . The normal pace when I,m driving my Max IV is either slow walking or very fast walking . On a pipe line I might hit 20 mph , if its REALLY smooth and bump free . I don,t like the sharp jolts to my spine when I hit the rough spots. The places I like to ride are REALLY technical and call for a really slow speed , just like the places where Dan and Heath ride .

Mike, that screenshot looks interlaced. You're on a pc with a software player? If so, dig around in the settings..

I'd like to be on the Wall of Fame.. I look for launch sites when I ride.. takes a special one for a front heavy vehicle. If you care about landings you can walk away from.

I'll see if I can't get a better image. That is the raw footage before compression so I would have thought it would have been clear but like you say, it may be reduced just to speed up the video playback through WMP. Good suggestion, thanks.

I will have a pic coming soon as soon as I can find a cameraman. We took the backhoe and built a small jump for my son today for his little 50. I couldn't resist and gave it a whirl. I couldn't beieve that I got the Bigfoot to fly. I will be going back to get some pics.

Whipper ,


I love watching you and Bridget fly through the air , with the greatest of ease when you land , but , I,d probly have broken axles , and maybe a boken back too , if I tried this with my heavy Max IV . I like riding in it , not wrenching on it from breaking things .

too.

I guess I need to fire up the Max II and put some light under the tires for you guys. I don't think the Max IV has it in her to get off the ground. I need to get the family out with the cameras. I swear the II is off the ground most of the time anyway. Just need to get that shot. Lets hope for some decent weather this weekend.
