That last video is neck brace time!
- The secret to mountain biking is pretty simple. The slower you go the more likely it is you’ll crash.
- No one gets hurt in the air
- There is no such thing as bad weather, just inappropriate clothing.

Couple of different angles:

www.pinkbike.com/video/138062/

As Glyn said, video's don't really do it justice but they're reasonably big, but a lovely couple of jumps. Fair play to Glyn, he hit it after one quick roll up to check the take off and then attacked it first time. Next one we're looking as this:

www.pinkbike.com/video/214787/
www.pinkbike.com/video/236383/ (Hopefully get the landing a bit smoother!)

I'm suffering with a bit of lurgy so not sure if I'm gonna be in a fit state for anything too strenuous tomorrow. I'll see how I feel later this evening, but I reckon I'd be able to manage some DH action, not sure about XC though. By the way, the Session was AWESOME!
