Ahhhh . . . you mean Otis. I was wondering if that's who you were referring to; but ya never know.

Here ya go - - two pics of Otis hitting the Beacon step-up:





BTW, sscyco tells me his dog is also pretty adept at the step-up too. Go dog go.

^^ In PinkBike feet it would be, like, sick dude - - ten feet up and an 8-foot gap. In reality, it's probably 4-5' up and about the same gap. It throws you about 10' out to put your back tire comfortably up atop the rock.

First 30 seconds of this vid gives you a good idea (ignore the hack at the beginning who augers it ):

@ SneakyKing

Thanks! I hope to turn Pro by the time I am Dminor's age.

sponsors are looking to be:

Tomac Mountain Bikes/ Industry Nine/ Magura USA/ Schwalbe/ Caffelatex

Coca Cola and Taco Bell declined.

jk, but Red Bull did. hehe

Truthfully I sent resume out way too late. Got some rejections due to that. We'll get'm next year. I feel grateful to have the help I did get.
