http://www.youtube.com/v/LEOkNhfKCUo - Clip of Fox stunt.

Greendead: Distance was so-so but height wasn't too impressive. The roof is pretty low as well.

Fox: Pretty nice rotation and ground-grab, although it may have looked better without the grab. With the grab it looks like you bailed the rotation.

My vote goes to Fox because I think his rotation was more impressive than Greendead's roof. I am amazed you both chose not only the airport, but basically the same exact spot.

i'm disappointed in this match. the challenge gave you a lot of freedom that you didn't use

Greendead:
low and not really far tankbump to a very low roof - nothing more to add.

Fox:
you didn't even land on the roof however you got pretty nice rotation. the ground-grab made the stunt worse instead of better in my eyes.

Fox's stunt looked better because of the rotation but Greendead landed on some roof at least. keeping in mind that this needs at least some precision and action at the landing...
My vote: Greendead

1-1 so far

Yeh i know the grab made it worse - but keep in mind that it was an backup stunt. I did 4 roofings later - 2 on psp, one on xbox which have had a broken rep and one on pc which i landed yesterday evening which was to late...

I noticed NoAP's youtube of your stunt Fox, now I am confused.... I thought I remember looking at your stunt earlier and it was a tank bump in a similar spot, to a nearby roof... or something?

Greendead: Okayish tank bump in a pretty straightforward area. You had no spin off it but you did have a nice looking flip. The landing was alright I guess in that it was a roof (with a kinda smallish surface area) landing, although it wasnt a very high roof. The distance off the bump was nothing special, but it was alright.

Fox: Another okayish tank bump in a similar location to Gd's. I guess yours was quite the oposite: instead of a flip and no spin, you had no flip and some spin. Ground-grabs can sometimes make a stunt look better (in that they add another aspect to the stunt), but on this occasion, to me, it kinda made it worse since it 'looked' like you could've landed fine without it - although I guess in regards to making it a combo of stunts it was kinda okay to watch.

My Vote: Both similar stunts in similar location, both with about the same height, both having one little extra bit on the end (roof landing/ground grab). Greenie had a smooth flip to roof, while Fox had a decent spin to not-so-smooth ground grab'ed landing. Hard to say which one I prefer. I think I am gonna give my vote to Greendead, but only just. To me Greendeads seemed like a better stunt - I dont really know what else to say. Now, a few closing words: tank bumps are a great stunting friend, they can provide for some really interesting and unexpected stunts due to the unpredictability of the bump. They also don't take much to set up - just look for a small ramp or bump and chuck your tank behind it, then go for gold. Keep that in mind next time you go stunting, as the airport is not the only place to do them, there are many many other locations as well. Ofcourse this was a short time-limited challenge so I don't blame you for choosing to try a stunt at the airport. One more thing, Fox, keep trying that bump you submitted earlier, that was a sweet stunt, and would look pretty cool if landed with some nice rotation.

Fox: A ok-ish tankbump with a decent spin, nothing that really impressed me though.

Greendead: The distance you got made the stunt look pretty nice, but it didn't give me a "Wow" feeling.

My vote goes to Greendead. I think his stunt looked slightly better with the landing on a roof, even if it wasn't so high. Though I feel both of you didn't use a tankbumps full potential, you could have done a lot better.
