On a couple different occasions, we borrowed/rented a small loader to carve out some new jumps in the lot near my house.	Both the wooden takeoffs, two decent dirt landings, and even a fresh dirt takeoff that we built at the riding area that we affectionately called, "The 63rd Street Compound." The wooden platform in the center was used on top of my friend's truck to give him a higher perspective while taking pictures.
A couple of the jumps we built.	The big step-up pictured at left from the side(s). This one was about 95 feet long with a 15 foot "step" to it (the increase in elevation). As soon as you landed, you had to get on the gas hard for the next jump in the rythem, another step-up that was about 80 x 10 feet.
Practicing one afternoon. March 2002.	The Google Maps image of our compound in 2002. With a private, gated entrance from 63rd street on the south (and a gravel driveway), we were able to truck in equipment and build new jumps at our leisure. We pretty much ran the place.
