I want this pinned - and I ain't kidding. I've finally decided to publicly release this.
(http://img696.imageshack.us/img696/9223/smegap2b2grindchallenge.jpg)
What you need to know:
1) This stunt is possible to do without RAD's method. I've reached the rail on several occassions, but never managed to grind. Therefore if you use RAD's method to land this you're making it quite lame IMO lol. Personally I started my run-up just underneath the bridge from Leaf Links.
2) The closest someone has come to landing this, as far as I'm aware, has been Tackleberry. He hit it all perfectly, and grinded the whole rail - only to bail on landing on the ground on completion of the grind. It was the most sickening thing I'd ever seen and it wasn't even my stunt! Can only imagine how poor Tack felt.
3) I discovered this stunt after watching a very old GTAS community video - before I had come to the forums, and before TMS. Someone did this p2b, but landed on the police station roof. I then wondered just how much further the bump could take you. If anyone wants ideas for stunts, look to the older videos and try to improve on the stunts you see in them.
4) Nailing this stunt will surely mean you've got a stick-on finisher in any vid. It's simply my best ever find and it's hard to think of a stunt that could top this.
Good luck to all those who try it. To any in TMS who are annoyed I released it, I could no longer sit onto it - someone has to land the fucker.
-
:( Tackleberry :(
Looks sick indeed!
-
Meh....
:P
-
Wish one of us in TMS still had the video clip of his attempt - think he originally uploaded it to share with us on Putfile (that's how far back this stunt goes!)
-
I've been trying this naturally for a few months and got close to the rail with masses of rotation, the packer isn't necessary. Just take a RAD runup, then come out a few seconds away from the bump and control a wheelie towards the ledge. TurBo originally show me the spot as a natural bump, but got to the grind by accident.
-
Natural would be awesome too - sorry SS :P
-
No problem :ninja:, sorry if I came across like a dick by the way, looked back and it and although I had no intention of it I seem a bit pretentious in the post :P. Would have looked cool with the packer and it's definitely far harder to get the bump naturally, but you can get lots of rotations (although I assume you also can with a packer), and of course it just looks nicer :)
-
With a packer you don't need RADs - I assume naturally you would need RADs. Both would be very difficult to nail.
-
okay, I'm trying with rads, but I hit the rail already :o
-
Oh god, that would be tight indeed. KJ get stuntin' and land that ring already :cc_detective:
Would love to be able to try, but my pc won't let me.
-
That ring keeps hating me, tried the other day and couldn't get one good bump. If I was really desperate I'd try the run-up in reverse the whole way...
-
I've tried this before.. the setup is annoying.
-
I'll give it a shot!
Offtopic: Hey Kingjad weren't we going to do a sequence video together? :happy:
-
Oh yea I remember this :P Have been trying it myself. Tacs attempt was terrible lol
-
I guess Docta luv landed the police station,....give it a shot today :mellow:
-
looks nice, dont really like the "back the packer up" p2b method, but still, would look sick for sure. May give it a shot. thanks for sharing.
-
Been trying naturally to the roof for some time, this spot annoyed me as i only edged it once so i shared it with shadowsniper in vcmp and he corked it there :lol:. this bump has been a problem for me but i'll try to grind it naturally for sure, nice with a packer too though, nice spot.
-
So have someone already landed the bigger building?
-
Technically. but it wasn't really released.
-
LOVED :wub:
-
It's a cool spot, but it's MUCH harder then how cool it would look like.
Also, sounds kind of selfish that this cant be topped.
-
nice will be sick to land this :D
-

Landed on VCMP with a cork already with TurBo, but nobody's landed in a video :P
-
Pretty decent for a challenge, miiight give it a try later.
-
sony - in my opinion, it can't be topped. Opinions aren't fact, they're just what I think. So try not to be too offended.
-
right, sorry man.
-
Isn't there supposed to be another stunt in that picture, something with a tank and a ring? :P
-
Everyone already knows that's my holy grail numbnuts - I've wasted dozens of hours on it with no joy. I sometimes even wonder if it's possible - I've bonked it but there is no room for error whatsoever.
Kinda like this stunt - you need to hit the rail spot-on and hope it doesn't bail you. Surprised Brainkiller never landed it as he's good at stuff like this...but the packer set-up's annoying because you only get 4 or 5 good bumps before you need to fix packer again.
-
That would look really sick, even with the packer.. i'll try it with the bump and with the help of the packer.. :ajaja:
-
Please, find Tac's video :(
-
I'm gonna try your tank stunt right now Kingjad :euro:
EDIT: NO FUCKING WAY. Landed upsidedown, uploading an unlisted video to YouTube soon.... ¬_¬_¬__¬_¬___¬
EDIT 2: YouTube's uploading way too slowly, looks I'm going to Vimeo again :P
-
sick spot, ss what tankbump? I'm blind? o.o

They are talking about landing the ring outside the stadium. :P

Shadowsniper Fails Kingjad's Stadium Ring (http://www.vimeo.com/18760191)
Had slow upload times on YouTube and Vimeo, sorry :P. This happened after about two minutes... I'm becoming quite unlucky these days, so close :(. The password is gtastunting.
-
^ :o damn that was so unlucky but rly smooth executed attempt
E: And actually the weapon of the tank stopped you on the preci D: I just noticed that. Hope to see it landed on wheels
-
Don't land it anyway ! This is KJ's property :) Nah, but seriously that would be shit to see it landed from another guy. This is like the legendary spot that won't get landed by King or Dannye haha
-

Yeah I knew I was gonna slip off so just shot in hope I would stay on :P
-
What was that text about at 0:15? :lol:
-
What was that text about at 0:15? :lol:
Oh you know, nothing, it's not like I get called a modder every time I post a new stunt. Forgive me for recording it live to shut a few people up :P
-
I thought it was hilarious when that text popped up :lol:
The only stunts I've seen you modded are from way back, you've been clean for years as far as I can tell. ^^ Fantastic attempt man, really sick even when it was bailed. Hope to see it landed sometime! :D
Edit: grind spot would be awesome btw, I'm sure now that it's posted somebody will land it sooner or later ;D
-
Modded :P jk. Best hope of landing the stunt is doing it off-balance like you got there. Unpredictable results though - I've bonked off the ring, hit the ground and bounce up and through the middle, and most famously did a double-flip to a grind that I passed off as a great stunt, biggest fluke in stunting history :P
Anyone can try the rhino stunt too, these two stunts are good finds, they're both possible, they don't require any special methods, just lots of luck and patience.
-
I just aimed for the middle of that grass bump at an angle as that tends to get you the bump to the ring, I stopped trying when I got that so I'll try and land it tomorrow :P
-
how could you believe thats clean? :euro:
:rolleyes:
nah hahah looks fucking clean even without seeing the live part :P looks frustrating lol gl whoever this wants to land :happy:
-
Thing about tank bump though is that it's difficult to get that at an angle without losing control at that speed. Let some other fucker go nuts landing it lol.
-
Heh, if I'd landed it upsidedown that would have been good enough for me :lol:
Best of luck to those trying it!
-
I'm just frustrated that after days, weeks, months and years of constantly trying the stunt on-off and only bumping off the damn thing you have SS trying for 10 seconds and landing on it!
-
The problem for me is that I can get to something just by figuring out the technique quickly, but when it's a precision like this in VC where you haven't got control in the air, it's a real bitch. I'm going to try it again soon and I doubt I'll get on it to be honest :lol:
-
This looks good even if landed upside down , GJ Paul.
