Cool pics!
Hope I can try that out some day. (just gotta find a lake) So how'd you guys get the bike back? How deep was the water in the landing?

I have seen bike wrapped in foam (pipe insulation type) that floated.slcpunk21 said:
I was hoping that you could atleast retrieve the bikes off the bottom if you wanted.

SWEET! now, if i could only convince my buddie's family to put in a ramp down at they're summer house on lake anna (in VA)... i'd be having some fun like that!
very cool.
very cool.
No, I know of many ways to get the bike back like that (2 liter plastic bodles) taped to the frame is supposed to work better than anything, from what I've been told.RhinofromWA said:
Just looking at the pics and they have nothing attatched to the bike... so either they are launching that high and landing in shallow water, got some scuba gear on to go get it.
I know they didn't have anything on thier bikes...I am curious too. 
I was thinking real heavy test line and a strong fishing pole. lol zzZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz *spash* clink WrrwrrrwrrzZzwrrrwrrwrwrzZz wrrr hahaha
I just don't have a bike I hate that much to jump it into a lake...gotta be a POS.

The lake is super deep, you rarely ever get to the bottom. The bike actually floats on its own, between the tires and the frame it will float for more than 5 minutes.
I hate lake jumping. watching others do it is a good time though.
we used to use a jacket for water skiing or whatever, tied to the top tube...
I got hurt doing that crap. bike lands on you, backflopping into the water. etc.
lamage.

The lake is a block from my house, my friend dock jumps off his dock. But our bike isn't the best that we use, anyone want to donate one?slcpunk21 said:
