There's a clip of Kris Holm landing a 14 foot drop on Into the Thunder
Dragon. It looks pretty darned stupid to me.

Video link please.🙄 (Did you have a tape measure with you at
the time to measure it? Just curious. 🙂 )

I usuallt take a tape measure with me for muni. The drop was 10' 4".
I didn't get it on film because I just have a sucky digi camera that
wastes up batteries. I'll try to get it next time though.

I think that's the Lobotomizer (Circus trail, Fromme mountain, North
Shore). It takes ridiculous chops to huck (and survive) a 14-footer in
a muni situation.

In that vein, just about every move of Circus is ridiculously
(stupidly?) scary, and unfortunately also very much in need of
maintenance. Freeride biking seems to have veered away from precision
tech (raised skinnies, raised teeter-totters, big but do-able drops)
and gone to just plain fast and big with the advent of huge shocks.

Also, similar but older thread:

I'd say these two would fit the description of both high drop and Crazy!
Over 7 feet off a tractor, and nearly that high off a telephone booth!
Never again to flat! I've done 7 foot drops on MUni trails, but they
always have a nice down slope for a good roll out, which is key.😄

25578

Lol I remember givin you tips on how to land a 3ft drop at CMW! Hope to
ride with you again soon geezer! lmao, well my record is 9ft to hard
dirt trail, 8 to flat, but its pretty pointless really....
