Jason Roussel doing a cliff drop on Revel8 Revolt "chickens" at the Canadian Skiboard Meet Jan 5th, 2010.

Kirk S. is the one at the base of the drop giving him pointers.

I shot this with my little digital camera...

Jason has some more video clips that he will share when he gets a chance...

I think the worst part of riding skiboards is washing out every time you land even a little backseat. It's nearly impossible to pull it back together.

yea me and joey were talking about this yesterday after he overshot a jump by a bit throwin a 5 and wiped out. On something longer than 98cms he would have landed it for sure....skiboards force you to be point on with your landings. It is a love hate relationship....because all in all it makes you a much better rider.

There was quite a large divot at the base of the drop that made for a hard landing...Its one of the few that he didnt land..

[Roussel]

i think with one or two more tries i could have got it.

Yeah, but you would have been pooped hiking back up to it! (I'm tired just thinking about doing it! :D )

[Kirk S]

you could have got it on the next try, no doubt about it.

True, true...
but the reason why we tend to backseat is cause we are so f...... afraid of nose dive, its so much more painful "dipping" you head. :D

haha, no doubt.
