For lifts like that in a buggy are you seatbelted in or is it just pressure between your feet and the seat?

@ Jeanjockey - usually a seatbelt - however the first 3 on this one are unstrapped - you have to hold onto the axle though & if you are taking
your foot out & put enough pressure on your upwind footpeg, otherwise you lose the buggy like in the 3rd jump!!:embarrased: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnONfZDjZZw

Nicki's bug isn't modified yet - standard Flexi - she bent a side rail the day at Rhossy but it's still fine to ride. Her jumps have just started
getting to the breaking stuff height so guess composite parts or modifying will follow soon, but hopefully she can keep it in one piece long enough to
finish the testing on the PL proto freestyle bug which is going mentally well! I'll stick some pics on the other thread 
Oh do you like my new belly pan by the way? We're going to the German KLB comp next week so I asked Neil at Darkskykites.com if he could make me
something appropriate - I asked for a dragon (to represent the welsh flag) so Nudge designed & Neil made a dragon in the German flag with lots of
Bartiebats & a gazillion Peter Lynns - I think it's very cool!! ...
Edit: Awww, why does it come out so small? Can I make it bigger or if you click on it does it come up bigger? You have to see the detail, it's just
brilliant
