Anyone got pics of this place? Or even better video...
I've heard of 200 mph speeds there but I've never seen video or anything..
Just curious... :p

Jack Cooper and I have flown on the dam at 150 many many times on radar.
we were flying at another spot the same day we were flying on the dam at 150 and we went way way faster at the other spot it was estimated speed we didn't bring the gun up as it's a hike,,but I have flown at 150 on the radar enough to know that jack flew my opus to at least 200 ,,,I have it on video but the frame rate makes it look much slower,but it does give an idea,,,,,,,,I say 225 so the 200 was conservative,,,,,,we are going to do it again as soon as Jack get's back from so cal,,tis the season for the spot,,,this time radar,,and good res. video,,,I filmed jack blowing up the mini carisma with the same camera and that video look's sslow too,,need to buy a new cam,,,,,,Nick

Thanks Nick!
I'd be helping Jack if I didn't have a pregnant wife and pleanty of work at home myself, not to mention I'm running my parents business right now(more like goofing off on the computer) while they are out of town, but thanks for letting me know.
Next time you guys are out bustin' 200 at the dam get the gun and some video. If 200's are possible there I don't see why more people aren't into DSing there..

The north side pic has Todd flying his plank with Mike in the background. The south pic has Jack Cooper flying his clipped wing BD-5. The DS groove is smooth most of the time which increases the fun factor. Thanks to Jack for showing me the basics of DSing!
