In my mind, I used to be able to jump like that, in reality nobody was jumping like that in the early 80's

If I work at it, I might be able to jump like that, but I think my age/wisdom will prevent me from ever trying

I did a drive by of Greenlake on Saturday, any reports of a test ride?

Another area I'd like to check out is the trails in Kenmore

what trails in kenmore? lived in kenmore my whole life never seen any trails. if you talking bmx trails

It's been a while since I found a good reference to it, but I think it's St Edwards state park, I'm trying to find some recent status, there is at least one report of part of the area being targeted for development.

Also referred to as Finn Hill, from the comments, it sounds like a lot of these jumps got tore down.

More info, it sounds like there are a couple parks and MTB trails that connect them with a little BMX style jumping in the middle

yep those are gone. i used to smoke pot in there all the time in highschool and honestly i never once saw anyone ride them. the only action i saw there was when we got caught smoking by the fire department so to make it look like we were riding my friend borrowed this young kids mongoose and proceeded to overshoot a 15 foot long table top by about 15 feet. he almost rode out of it to using a small tree root as a landing but his foot just slipped off and he kinda rode out of it with his left foot and ran out of it with his right. it was one of the greatest things i ever saw anyone do on a bike

Great story dude!
