I like watching the Extreme Sports category on Digg.com. Some good ‘Diggs’ get posted on all kinds of hairy things in the world of mountain and extreme sports. Check out this one I just found tonight: “Are you kidding? Damness!! This thing is about 360 feet long (you realize how long that is?) and 75 feet high at its highest point. The 75′ apex is where the skaters begin their run-ins, to a 180-foot-long roll-in then ramp that launches them across a 70-foot huge gap.”

I know plenty of skiers who would shy away from a 70 foot gap, but with skateboards!! Takes some pretty large sacks to commit to a skate ramp this size.
