Great video. The only problem is this technique only works on hexagonal logs. The logs I usually see in the wild (I call these XTreme Logs) are less hexagonal and
more round. Therefore when your tire hits it, the two round surfaces tend to cancel each other out and your rotational torque due to the two spinning round shapes cause a sideways force that might end up in a crash. :D

Well I guess we need some more hexogonal logs.

I think we could probably get with the biology department and see if we can start growing some.

What ever happened to the good ole bunny hop? You guys getting too old for that?

they make pencils from hexagonal trees. the forests in Malaysia are kinda freaky looking if you've never seen one.
