DUNEDEMON Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 (edited) Has anybody gone to china wall(hill #5)?Now thats a steep hill! Been there lots of times, not as steep as "The Wall", how about "Jet Crash" ever been there? Good looking bike BTW. Edited September 23, 2004 by DUNEDEMON Quote
banshee370 Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 Here are a few pics of china wall.... While I agree its steep...... I still think Comp hill at Dumont towers over it... overall height and almost verticle. Quote

There steep but I perfer the slide over both of them. Its not too steep and good for racing. Quote
SANDSTAR Posted September 28, 2004 Report Posted September 28, 2004 These pics get me all shakey and stuff. My palms are sweatin', and when I saw the pic of China Wall, I got that feeling in my gut that I get when I burn down a big bowl in six and G-out at the bottom. Great pics. I can't wait till Thanksgiving! Quote
efward Posted September 28, 2004 Report Posted September 28, 2004 Where's "Jet Crash"? Never heard of that one. I was under the impression that the whoops at Olds filled in during the summer. Kind of an ebb and flow of sand making them bigger and smaller. This topic sounds familiar. Quote

For what I've heard "Jet Crash" is out in the closed part of the dunes, across the road. if you want to see it you'd have to walk. Nope the wumps don't usually go down too much in the summer. Quote

I can't wait till Thanksgiving! sandstar: I have fairly large jars full of sand from each dune I have been too. Each time I see these pics........... I too get that feeling in my gut. 52 days, 22 hours, 49 minutes, and 12 seconds left until Thanksgiving at Dumont! Quote

Leadfoot350 Posted October 19, 2004 Report Posted October 19, 2004 If you guys want to get over the woops get a longer swing arm. I have a +6 on mine and I can full throttle it all the way up. I just lean back and the bike just soakes up the woops like butter. I used to have the stock swing arm and I would get all out of control and almost fall off while never letting off the gas. Im telling its a huge difference. If any does not believe me I will be there next weekend racing up olds and will woop you just to prove it. Quote
DuneRoller Posted October 19, 2004 Report Posted October 19, 2004 I was just there this past weekend and the whoops at Olds are getting pretty damn big. Hella fun though. Blast through them just kinda dancin on the tops and hold on! Gotta love China Wall. Quote

Went up china wall last weekend, and stalled it on top of the hill.Luckly I jumped off and my shee rolled all the way down. Nothing broke on it except for the two front tires. ( deflated them) Quote
sean10 Posted October 31, 2004 Report Posted October 31, 2004 Dumont has a good hill to race where there is little whoops and the hill is pretty long. The right side of comp. i pulled 74.5 miles on radar not dialed in. Quote
SandShooter Posted November 2, 2004 Report Posted November 2, 2004 Here is a few pics from the Wall taken last year. Quote
Cooker Posted November 5, 2004 Report Posted November 5, 2004 I dig that steep shiat too, China wall is great but now I'm into that wall in Patton Valley. I don't know if it has a name but it's steep as hell. Scares me more to come back down than to go up Quote
