Cardiel fs air off a vert ramp
« on: October 26, 2017, 08:21:22 AM »
I used to watch 411vm #2 all the time, mainly for Penny and the Northampton contest, but in the contents at 2.47 there's footage of Cards airing off the Munster vert ramp ( I think) to flat. 

Does anybody know if it was a make or if a ramp was there for the landing?  Did he try it again, whats the story behind it if anybody knows.

Its Insane and probably should be folklore

Not sure if it was a make, but I'm pretty sure there was a quarterpipe there. I think Senn did it the next year (and then he did it to 5050 on top of the quarter in 95 as well).

Cardiel also tried this in 95

Hosin' out the cab of his pickup truck
He's got his 8-track playin' really fuckin' loud

you can see him ride away breifly through an aperture in the crowd before it goes to black. also, pretty damn sure he landed in an obscured ramp.

I actually remember on Vans's old website (5 or more years ago) they had rider Q & A's that included setups -- he stated that he rode 8.0 boards, 136mm indy's, with 54mm wheels. Who knows if its the same in that video, though.
