chuckt Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 (edited) I’m not familiar with this “satellite”, I’ve heard of it but IDK. Is it the same thing as “Squeeze Play”? I thought it went squeeze play, ray’s collarbone, jammer, with only a switchback in between. Edited January 8, 2021 by chuckt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rugger Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 (edited) Squeeze is right before Ray's. Ray's, then Jammer, Satellite isn't a feature so much as a section, but it's a distinct transition into the Hollows - that's where "Satellite" is...there was literally a Dish Satellite thrown in the woods there.

I need to get back in the riding shape I was in the video. Probably couldn't clear anything nowadays.. need to do a 2021 version of the video. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow. Jammer definitely doesn't look like that anymore. It looks like the drop and immediate step up at the start of the hollows didn't exist back then? Or did these guys just prefer to go through the skinny/rooty section? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the preferred way to go traveling E to W . Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"These guys" are the co-founder and also builder and Owner of KOM 😉 Like the other builder, FirstBlood said, it didn't exist then. Jammer is much tougher, like many things now. I did clean Jammer on 2 of my 3 most recent rides, it def tough. On the day I video'd that "tour" I managed to clean everything on the first take, that was a pretty rare occurrence then and I think 3 year ago is the last time I had a fully 100% clean ride doing both directions.

I just did it once every couple of months, just to stay on top, but at least 4 of 5 rides I don't even try, I dismount 1/2 way up the climb at the flatter spot, then decide if I'm going to rest for a sec and hit it, or walk it. I just don't care to gas-out for one feature (I'm in baaad shape these days), ruining what's left of my ride. But, if these past few weeks that I've been trail running are any indication, there has been a ton more traffic, and it wouldn't surprise me if the base of EBD has worn/eroded since last spring.

Gotta hit the line just right, and yes, pull real hard. I'm probably 50/50 on it, try it almost everytime through. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bump in the trough is the iffy bit of it... guess it's falling on deaf ears, but I've done it a handful of times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. Figuring out the line that let me miss that bump and hit the crack in the rock just right was the key. After finding that line, just go fast and pull hard 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting thought, you do have some momentum, the step up would be at an angle and chain side . then the stupid little baby head in the way. I volunteer to film 😜 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schoolie Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Yep that's it. Here's the line I hit: It ends up being almost a side hop up the ledge. The crack give you a face to stick your front wheel on as you hit it. I have to pretty much completely miss the little bump at the bottom, or else my timing gets thrown off and I just run into the wall real hard, lol. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't ridden in 9 or 10 months, so, in a way, I have stopped. I'm encouraging the children because you're being a baby... 😮😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
