This was my first ride through the Gillard area in Kelowna
after the fires last year. The trail builder have been very
busy indeed. All I can say is my Specialized Enduro isn't
up to this stuff and maybe neither am I LOL! Maybe I'll
post some more, there's a lot of pretty imaginative word
work here.

My new desktop wallpaper bro...
I just got back from one of my favorite trails here in Ohio,
Vulture's Knob.
Every year it gets more and more converted from an XC course
to FR. When both loops are open there are about 23 ladders
now with drops, jumps (doubles) and a couple "just ok" DH's.
There is still a great XC course with mucho switchback
climbs. I guess about 9 to 10 miles tops.
There are better trails but this one is closets to my
house. JD was there about 4 years ago knocked it but hey
think that through.
Just talked to the guys at go-ride.com and I will be heading
out there this winter but soon I will be ridding the
shuttles at Snowshoe then Iwill head out to Co.!
Thanks for the pics and sharing.

Rossland is building a lot of stuff like that. This is what
I look like when I try it, in case you missed it the first
time around

Shuttle car's my fav... sports shots with fisheye, IMHO,
look like little kiddie drops because all the pre-teen
skaters use them... I'd personally avoid use of it if you
don't want to look poserish.

This picture looks like the middle part of the rider's body
(you?) is gone. Great illusion!

Is that Wade? Poserish.....? That's a good 18' to the
landing zone, then you hit the wall. Check the rider below
for reference LOL! Poserish, man I've never been called that
before.... Other thing much worse, but not a poser hehe.

A suggestion...
Stop hanging out with pre-teen skaters and/or accept the
fact that all lenses have their place. Just like flash...
Claiming that the use of a certain type of lens is
"poseurish" is just plain ignorant.

The 10.5DX is always good for a little fun but I would never
over use it. Funny thing, he didn't see that's a 17-35 with
a 1.5 factor. That's no fisheye, it's strait top to bottom.
BTW, great looking pano you shot.

Be mindful of your neck, my friend. After my minor pile-
driver a few months ago, I've been much more mindful of my
own. BTW, where's the dirt?

Ah, I thought you were insulting my riding skills. You're
actually making fun of how I take pictures, now I'm really
insulted LOL! (not really)
