Did you ever make it across LaRoccos Leap?
Laroccos Leap did not exist back then... but if it had, as a 250c then 250b rider, I would not have attempted it. It seriously huge when viewed up close and is right after a corner. It is technically an uphill triple... The elevation change is huge and the take off shoots you up at a ridiculous angle. If you come up short you are casing it from way up with more vertical dropping vs movement in a forward direction. I think my ankles would snapped on landing. lol Many times nowadays some of the pros do not even attempt it at the annual Pro MX 4th of July race.
