    A bit steep, from this article about 120k for the pit, all up though he has spent $1m NZD roughly, no matter which way you cut it, it's alot of coin.

    Well he has alot of foam. However I think you wouldn't need a pit as big as Travis's.

    depends on how accurately you plan on landing.

    Maybe 4 mates running around with a stretcher trying to catch?
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    farrr out!

    by the looks of things in the first pic, the person who made that track has waaaay to much spare time
    My choice is what I choose to do,
    And if I'm causing no harm, it shouldn't bother you.

    is that track open to the public? i probably wouldnt even try any of those jumps but it would be pretty sweet just watching people try!
