Bikes stood at a bit of an angle int it? make the bars lower.

Matx

no pretty upright but... if it had been dead upright against the rock it would have been on the higher bit of ground, dan took off around where his back tyres is...the lower bit! Lets be honest 53inch is huuuuge anyways and this is on natural!!

i dont belive thats 53" for a second.

hence why i said "around 53", we think it was over 8 blue pallets and they measure up at about 51 inch.

EDIT: Who cares, it's huge!! And it's not even on a nice grippy tarmac takeoff with a grippy landing.

Natural isnt always harder for things like this due to round edges and things etc (anyway lets not start an argument).

Anyways its a mint pic nice side (Y) danny is a mint rider wish he brought vids out..

How can anyone be suprised that dave made a stupid comment?

I thought it was funny how someone mentioned the bike being leaned over just a little, as if you guys were trying to make it look bigger, obviously someone is experianced in inch pinching.

nice one danny.

It's just that it Looks, LOOOOOOOKKKKKKKSSSSSSSSSSSS.. Looks (not is..!) smaller than 53 inch, and 53 inch is really high in sidehops so yeh.. well done anyways.

it's the fact that you thought he would try and make it look bigger by putting his bike at an angle which is gay. You say it 'looks' smaller than 53" are you then suggesting that they have lied?

I don't really care, but the comment you made would suggest that you know at least one tactic for making things look bigger than they are........
