JOEY GOUGH - BMX Girl

Scoob and me have been getting in the shovel work recently, ressurecting the back line mainly this week and turning it into something fun and flowy rather than the hard work it was before. Digging out bowls, extending landings, making the lips and landings taller... it's all made it super fun! We also built up our jump into the berm, so now you can jump into the top corner and it's like a rollercoaster from there on.


On wednesday we made a few more tweaks and tested it all out in the fog. We couldn't see much but it all worked good, it was pretty fun. Scoob was determined to try out our new taller 3rd landing on the mains too, but it was so foggy that when you took off you struggled to see the landing. I took the first run up and just kept expecting to be able to see the jump a bit better when I got there....but it never seemed to happen! Still, it seemed to work pretty good, so we are looking forward to the rain when we will build the lip up to match it.


Incase we hadn't given our bodies enough abuse, we went to boxing training afterwards for a tough session. Really good though, we had steam coming off our heads. The skills are finally starting to come together a bit now as we are practicing the moves a bit faster.
