    I'm more impressed with the "ups" than the "drops". Can we see some of
    those, Terry?

    Ok, as requested by maestro8, here's a little quickie of "ups" for ya,.
    Granted they're not spectacular, but were a challenge for me
    nevertheless. I'll try to do more in my next new video!😄

    Don't know why you take such a shine on drops that go to flat.
    Eventually you'll cook that 52 year old back, I'm afraid. I'll go semi
    big so long as there's a steep roll out but if it's flat I'm afraid to
    go too high. My teeth rattle and my lower back gets stiff. Some of
    those drops in Sullivan are a good six foot if you launch out there but
    owing to the steep roll out you barely feel a thing. That tractor jump
    to flat (even sand) looks like a good way to end up in traction.

    Haha pun intended I'm sure! Well, it actually didn't hurt at all; it was
    mostly just scary being up that high even though it was a sand landing.
    And I don't prefer drops to flat at all, quite the contrary.

    But I'm in total agreement with you on the rollout factor...absolutely!
    There just wasn't any on that particular drop. I sure would not have
    done it to flat *solid* ground, that's for sure!😄

    Hey Terry,
    Maybe you could build up a sand castle (i.e. ramp) below that tractor
    next time? Just remember to bring a shovel...

    Haha yeah I was going to go back there and set my little wood ramp down
    so I could have a rollout, but I rode past there today during a 36er
    ride, and everthing's been removed and plowed over! Oh well, at least I
    got something out of it!:p
