Heres mine. Took 1 summer to build. I was out their every day all day with my shouvle till it got to dark to see and this is it. It used to look differant cause i used to change it around allot but i got lazzy and dont build no more. I just fix the jumps.

My track the ground leval used to be 1ft higher but its lower from me digging for dirt. i droped the ground leval 1 foot through most the track just so i could have some dirt.

I used to have 2 tracks but the one flooded all the time so i smoothed out all the jumps trying to get the field to stop flooding and it still flooded so now i only have 1 track and a neighbors track and a couple fields to ride in.

Open your image up in Paint, @ the top click "image" then "stretch/skew" then change the percentages under stretch down to show the image @ a resonable size make sure u change both of them to the same or it will distort. Hope that helped.

yea man! thats the way to do it........ all my friends ever say is "i'll wait till i get the bobcat out here" ........... one has been waiting for a year and a half and the other probably wont get one till summer 2007 comes around............ after diggin for so long though you gotta take a brake for a few months though..... i dug mine with a shovel as well so i know wat you mean..... every jump on my track is at least 15 feet........ i also have a sweet creek jump that kinda extends out into my creek on stilts like a dock....... when it raining and your jumping over roaring water its pretty cool

Behind my buddies house, we would be straight if the f@!king cows would stay of the jumps. We're fixing to start on it again since its cooling off and we got a lil more dirt...

Here's the table, cut a lil out of the middle to make it a bit bigger

The double, since we were low on dirt, everything is a lil over a quad width wide. Thats got to change;)

Yeah. It took over 100 hours for the bigest jump. to be built.
I used to have a rithm sec but i took it out. It was like 7 douples in a row. The whole track used to be rithm. Their used to be 2 douples in front of the big jump.
Now im thinking of taking the woops and some other things and adding them to the big jump. I want to try to get 30ft of air b4 the house sells.
