That's 7 months away... And they're probably gonna have a shitload of new stuff by then.

And I'm not telling because I want them to myself.

Flip, you riding the BB7? You like? I'm sure you do seeing as you bought one but just looking for some real owner feedback. If I get some cash I might look at getting a 02 or 03 frame. That or a Giant

I have indeed loved every minute of my time on my bb7...it's handled two seasons of abuse and over 44 days in the bike park this season alone....I have no doubt that if I need it to, it'll last another this season! I love the way it handles, corners like a demon, super supple, sticks to the gorund like glue, jumps awesome and pedals pretty damn well for a full blown dh rig! I even did two laps of a river runs through it on the the beast one day.....I have yet to regret getting this bike, it keeps on truckin'!

Hell yeah, that combo rocks. I love hornet.

But I love that part on Whistler Downhill when the trail drops away fast (you can sort of jump down it) and the rock faces after that. Thats where I ate shit and slid down the rock face when I saw the bear in the trees... Scared the shit out of me...

well, last time I was on it yeah... Smile but that was back in november before the snow started flying....my buddy in the city is gonna be lacing me up a set of 321's as part payment for my dmr sidekick frame I gave him......

a crack addict? gimme some! Twisted Evil give that trail a nice coating of mist and it makes it oh so fine! Wink

best combo of trails ever? strap up your helmets boys.....upper joyride, to cross over onto schleyer where the rocks are before the drop, do the drop, back over to joyride after the drop, then bust down the road pedalling like mad to the whistler downhill and the big fadeaway drop/jump.....hammer the straightaway but veer right onto the new section of the nationals downhill course into the big rock face.....cross clown shoes, then bust down to the trail intersection and onto lower joyride, blast the steep and gnar to the end, pin it across the flats and shred the flowiness of the bsx, be sure to boost the big table waaaaay out and snake the middle line of the dual berms......now that's a killer run

Lets hear some whistla stories... I'm full of them...

So I'm going down the rock faces of whistler dh and into the tree section and I decide that I'm going this little connector trail over too that steep fast downhill on the race course which was brand new. So I'm going down this trail and I come around a turn and theres tons of course tape across the traill and a couple pvc poles. Well, I run right into them, tangling myself up in the tape and breaking a couple poles. I was pretty f**king embarrassed so I scramble to get back up but that damn tape is stuck on my bike. So after a couple min I'm free and ride off...

NEVER TAKE SHORTCUTS. The wierd thing is, is that I did it the day before without tape, and that day I was just riding pretty fast along and boom...
