"Is that a pickle in yer pocket or are you just happy to see me?"

Neither... I just noticed yer skid plate! Where did u get that!? It's awesome! I bet it won't fit on an ERBE will it? Funny... I've never broken a chassis or a bulk on my ERBE (knock on wood). That being said, I'm not an extreme jumper either. I rarely will even do flips. Why? Well because it takes a bit of feel and practice, and I hate breaking stuff to do that. So I stick with low, long jumps and rarely wreck or break anything.

That being said, I think I'm gonna build a nice stunt ramp, and use my trampoline as a cushion. That way I can practice without breaking stuff! I have also thought of a way to string either a net or a tarp in a giant square about 3ft off the ground to do the same thing. If it's plush enough, I'll be able to do bombastic ariels and not break "much".

Say what you will, but that's how moto guys practice. Or, how about a tethered swing mounted to the sides of the truck? Ha!

Boiling bulkheads... That's a cool idea. I want to do the "rod mod" to my ERBE but keep forgetting to find out how long the turnbuckle should be. I sure do like that skid u have though!

Thanks for the info!
