Testing out the c-block



http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=2404

DJ(me!) of www.XDBockers.com tests out a new bocking spot for his club, it's called the c block by locals because the old fountain is in the shape of a c.

DJ bounces in and out of the pit.

Well done mate

What a fab place to bock what is on the other side of the steps/seats looks like it could be a good scary drop  :Cbiggrin:

With a bit more forward speed and a bit more confidence you will be making that i one bounce

What is the C-block used for (other than bocking  :Cbiggrin: )

On the other side is actually ground. It has a mound of dirt buil up flush with the back half.

If you want to see what I mean. I took a video of the spot a couple days before I went and bocked there. Just to show some friends in town.



But it looks like it's an old fountain. It has this tiny drain grate in the middle of the pit, and some weird piping around one edge.


So I'm hoping it remains unused. :P The parks really nice, it's in the middle of this nice quiet neighborhood and it was nearly vacant when I was there. I'm used to having to stop every few minutes to explain what I'm doing to tourists. So this will be a nice spot to get away now and again.



But with some speed I'm sure I could at the least get from the pit to the 2nd step. It's going to be fun to try.

didn't Status Quo sing something about "bocking all over the world"?

i don't always have the opportunity to take my bocks all over the place but it sure would be nice :p
(been to norway, austria and italy lately. just got back from germany, going to portugal in a couple of days :p)

You're lucky sir!

I've never left the states. I'm just excited to go to las vegas in a couple weeks.
