This spot has me half convinced nobody will ever stop on it :(. The precision element of the edge is 45 degrees to the angle of where you're bumping from so it's really hard to stop. There's like a really tiny edge on the right hand side which is 90 degrees and I've managed to bail onto the sign from that a few times, but whenever you land on the sign without touching the edge you will always slide off. You'd have to bump the rail at the top to get vertical enough for slowing down that way. In other words, you can easily reach the top of the sign every try, but I've been trying for hours to actually stop on it :lol:. Mega luck needed here.

Tried out this for a bit and only got close. :lol:

Packer set-up plays a big part in this stunt btw.  :ajaja:

I wish I kept a savegame of the packer to be honest but my formula for setting it up was this. Line it up with the 5th square from the right of the black building, pointing towards the 6th square with some angle. Do a RAD in the middle of the right hand lane, and come out of the RAD about a second and a half before turning towards the packer without leaning. Don't lean back at all until you've dropped from the curb to the grass. At this point, lean back slightly so you don't spin out on the grass. Once your on the packer start tapping lean forward, including whilst driving up the building. Enjoy falling off the billboard every single try :(

^ You do this math every single attempt?

Ehm yes, any sane stunter does. This stunt has a small ditch from the road to the packer and if you mess up there, enjoy your rage quits. If you know what you are doing you are only making the chances of landing bigger for yourself.

As sad as it sounds I do :lol:. Makes me land stuff miles quicker because then you know exactly how to replicate what you did the previous try if you get close. So once I get close to something I can generally keep that up :P

If anyone's still trying this I have a way of helping you slow down. The problem currently is that in order to reach the billboard you need lots of speed, so you can't slow down properly on the surface even by landing just after the edge, and you can't precision the edge because it's at a 45 degree angle to the bump. So, if you wheelie off the tip of the building at the very top this will help you get more vertical and slow down in the air (let go of acceleration in the air for maximum slow down).

A nice krail in the air when you are sure that you will reach the BB would look good and slow you down. :cc_detective:

Barely possible like that, although I have bailed it with a cork :P

I have hit the edge with a krail once as well, but you need the perfect attempt (like the one in BK's vid, where he got some extra distance) to make up for the lost distance.

I which I was that scientific while stunting, because then I'd might actually land something once in a while. :euro:

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! FUCKING FINALLY LANDED IT :D. Will upload a clip later and send a replay to Brainkiller so he can verify it's clean, that way the replay can't be stolen by anyone else :P. I managed to clip the edge slightly and JUST stay on :D
