im being dead serious... not to be disrespectful or anything because i have a tremendous amount of respect for you, but it really doesn't look that scary. Think about it, with the amount of speed you will get going down that it will be nearly impossible not lo land at the other side. we have handlebars to so it should be 10 times easier for us then any stick flipper. honestly i would love to ride that thing.
That's what I'd be most worried about. Get some speed wobbles and wash out right before/at the lip and you'd be screwed.

I couldn't imagine it being worse than on a board, you get mad speed wobbles on them, and plenty of skaters hit up the megaramp.

Plus you could always ride wider bars to prevent that..




Really the only thing I see that could be a problem is landing the big qp at the end, because I've seen bmxers hit that shit and they land back wheel first and HARD, like 1/4 of the way from the top, so unless you had some beast fucking forks and bars you're fucked..
 
Don't the riders that ride this have to have a specialized skateboard with tighter trucks and bigger wheels ?
Thats what i heard at least.
Idk if i got to the top of that thing i would have to go down.
Thats just me stuff like this seems like a challenge like when you put a plate of HOT ASS peppers infront of me i have to eat through them.
Or you tell me i cant do something i do it to try and prove you wrong haha.

Yeah im sure if this actually happened andrew brousard could wip up some forks and bars and build a really srtong scooter for people to try it on. after they did it oyu could auction it off on here saying that it survived this gap
