That's a pretty mellow cliff. I did a front flip off the one at blue hole, which is probably about 10-15 feet higher. It's loads of fun though. The climb up to that spot makes it a good jump though, the climb is insane. I got a little picture thing.

Pretty much, you have to climb up this water drip thing. There is this constant drip of water, which makes the rock really slick. After you make it up to this really small ledge, you start going towards the left. You come to where this water drip has created this really slick place. You have to crawl, with your face towards the lake, and stretch out to get past it. If you don't do it right, you pretty much fall onto the rocks below you. You see that big grassy thing? It hides this steep slope. The thing is, on this ledge, most of it is really loose shale, and it's really small, so you don't got much room. And when you get to the grassy area, there is a rock outcropping over your head. You have to get your arm up on top of it, and pretty much throw your body
weight out into space, and then pull yourself over, onto this little dirt ledge behind the grass. Then you hug the wall, and climb down this 4 foot step. Now, you have come to the vertical climb. You climb up this giant rock face, onto the top ledge. You have made it to the drop zone, now you just gotta jump. The jump is pretty fun, lots of hang time, and loads of fun. The climb is the scary part.

Here's the video of the full climb. =)

what music was that in your second vid

[Griptape Flip]

That was a song by MYG called "Sick Beat." It's pretty tight.

That's awesome ! When I lived in Oregon we did a hell of alot of cliff diving. Train tressels are killer too cause they're really high with no rock face to clear. Nice Job.
