When Dwain and Slim get back from their vacation, they'll show you how they FF it. (Dr. Nik's a pussy and will probably just SL it in drag)

There's an art to SLing in drag. Team Handbag was pretty impressive.

i watched you SL that with the former Mr. Spink right before he ripped me off with that shitty mojo 280. er, I mean alledgedly. I think you had on too much body armor on to pull off the drag look, is that why its too hard Tongue

Do y'all do unpacked jumps on that one?

is that the S I saw video of dwain and slim doing double gainers off of? similar to the other S in WV? the guy who showed me it said it was around portland.

I have only done SL or PCA...unpacked, you would have a tough time getting set up for it with the traffic and other constraints of that exit point, I think,

Perhaps 587 knows better, but I never saw either of them perform an aerial from that span.

No, nobody has done any FF aerials off that thing. FF off it is bad enough.
SL under the Deck is pretty low and just a hair under 150' to the ground anyway. I done a couple off the top of the Steeples, freefalling past the deck and support pillar before. That has to be the premiere of launches off that object. Just sitting on top and looking at all the down town lights and happenings. Then exiting to BUST open right over the Dock just below and scaring the holycrap out the guys fishing at night sitting there. ..Laugh
Unlike the deck SL or FF exit . If you have a 180 off the Steeple. You are just royally fucked. so heads up on that exit.

Always funny to see people startled by an opening...especially sleeping rent a cops...
