On the day I didnt go in to the shop my new Rocky Mountain Flow arrived. I built it up the day after and then the next day I took went back and brought her home. I havent been on a hardtail in a couple years so it is going to take some getting used to. Overall I think it gives the P3 and all the other companies that sell higher range hardtail freeride hardtail bikes a run for their money. The rocky and P3 have a totally different part spec, rocky has a DJ3QR and the P3 has a DJ2QR20, which is the biggest difference I guess. The rocky has big beefy alex wheels and the P3 has big beefy sun doubletrack wheels. There are some other small differences like derailleurs and stuff but I kind of like the rocky better. I wasnt going to wait another month or so for more P3's to come in so I just decided I would get the rocky. I also built my first snow jump of the season. And of course I have pics! (It might not be dialup friendly, I put 4 pics together as one file)

Nice rig. I bet if you throw some pegs on it you could do some sweet rail slides on your neighbors rail in the top photo. ;)

Swwet rig man!

Looks like you had a tad of snow there. I wish it would snow likw that down here just once so I could enjoy the comedy of southerners driving in it.

I am southern but have lived abroad where ther is lots of snow and ice so it is no big deal to me.

you could fly down your neighbors yard and get speed to launch off that ramp.

To get speed I might have to use all of the neighbors driveway (its steep). There is a danger right now of hitting your head on the porch roof so I might have to cut down the jump a bit and shorten the gap. I might be jumping it tomorrow but I am not sure, none of my friends are around to ride until monday.
