well today i got the balls to do my first water skim and man is it fun! it was on a flooded gravel road. about 100' of water 20' of gravel then another 120' section of water in the same stretch. will have video tomorrow. tomorrow further down the road there is a section that's 200' long about 4' deep i'm going to try again because i didn't make it and flooded my bike:( but its running now:macho. if i make that then i'm going on the side of the bridge about 30' deep and see if i cant make it lol. if i can find a ramp i'll pull a pastrana while i'm at it. i got a 01 cr250r running vp110 and it just felt natural for that bike to be on the top of the water for some reason, didn't want to sink just wanted to keep going.
