I've been doing some checking around and i have found that there is no freestyle parks open to the genaral public. I own a motox park allready and decided to build a freestyle park for the public.  We will be open next week we have a half pipe that is 20 feet high and over 75 feet across. We are also building a long jump and high jump. I guess we will see how it does. If any one has any info on freestyle parks please let me know thanks.

Yes this is a freestyle park for motocross not bicycles.

It would be clever of you to tell everyone where it will be.  BTW, it has been done before, at the now defunct Adrenaline MX Park in Victorville, CA, which has been transformed into a great MX track call VMC - Victorville Motorsports Complex.

We are 60 miles west of spokane WA. Exit 221 off of I-90 go south four miles to mp.59 (harder road) turn left on the gravel and were 2.5 miles on the left. Is there a contact number for that park in california.

You'll have to explain what the half pipe is for.

And I'm not sure how close you are to the suburbs or metro areas, but you may want to consider a parcel for BMX. Bigger market.

Besides, most FMXers ride BMX for training.

And perhaps a trampoline or two.

I threw the half pipe in for that reason. I have a nine year old son and i'm trying to get him to do more. I built the half pipe small enough it can be used with bmx's but big enough that a motorcycle can use it. I closed one end of it so it is like a horse shoe shape. Witch ads a great deal of diferent types of jumps. Being able to use the back side as well as the inside makes for a interesting lay out.

Are there pictures anywhere of a motorcycle in a halfpipe?  I used to ride a 12' half pipe with 1.5' of vert and I had the balls to maybe get 3' out of it and never did do any tricks.  I can't imagine throughing a motorbike around in there.  I could maybe see some crazy ass trials rider busting it out but not a dirt biker!!  I used to ride street BMX a ton but now I'm way more into BMX dirt jumping.  I've got the burliest 24" cruiser you've probably seen and love it!!!

DAMN,  This is the 1st I've heard of running dirt bikes in a ramp!!!  I would love to see some pics!!  This sounds like it'll push freestyle jumping pretty far.  I'm personally not that impressed with the FMX cause all they do is hit a big ramp and jump off the bike.  Half the current riders don't even have an midair bike control skills.
