Anyhow...hope you enjoy. Sorry about the poor quality of the pics...we are by no means photographers.

Oh and if anyone has any tips to help improve my half-assed tables that would be awesome.

Pics look good to me. Did your buddy make the gap? Wish I could help with the table but for some reason I can't even get my bike off the ground anymore. I think I developed some type of phobia or something but oh well I am just getting back into it

Try watching some vids and looking at pics, you'll be able to see how they get theyre legs positioned to flatten the bike. I can only do them about as well as you, but everytime you ride they'll get bigger.
Good luck!

Flash works good, but I like the sihouette effect as well.
