:cool: Diggin' that rock drop!
It's kind of weird feeling when you bounce down the rocks. I have gone over the bars a few times.. :)

The really good riders drop it properly, but it's a very tight, sketchy run up, and you land in a turn/berm!

whoa, is that a gravity powered dune buggy???? that thing is cool as hell!!!!!!!!!!
Yep, 4-wheel downhilling! They call it "Hillrolling". Something to get more people than mt-bikers to winter resort/places.

THose are some great pictures man! I never knew the riding in Sweden was so awesome! Props!
Actually, this is nothing. If anyone is interested in really good riding in Sweden, you have to check out Åre. About 1000Km north of where I am now. You get about 1000 vertical meters of lift accessed riding. Very varied terrain. Nice, technical trails. 15-20min of fast DH runs! They got it all! Check: http://www.mtbfreerider.com/

Thanks!

It means a lot coming from such a "Royal-internet-engineering-celebrity" like yourself! ;)

(Can't wait until the new e-13 pedals are available!) :thumb:

Sorry... :)
