Picnic tables really vary in height, I have seen some that I could make
it up SIF and others that I have to do a pedal grab rolling. But for
the most part I just can't do them, I can pedal grab them very easily
but getting straight to rubber is another story.

I can't get up to the -table- part, but I can SIF or rolling hop onto a
picnic table -bench-, and, from there, get onto the table.

I sif hopped up a 30" table 3 times. Haven't done it since and my hops
have gotten worse. I didn't vote because there is no "kinda" option;)

once again, Mr. Law, jumping onto a picnic table will not trash it. How
can a rubber surface (the tire) do damage to a wooden or concrete
surface? I understand that you don't appreciate people jumping all
around your property, but, seriously, lighten up. They're not defacing
everything, spraying graffiti, or carving their names into walls or
trees. We're trying to have fun, and there currently aren't any
designated places where this type of fun can be had.

Hopping on to a table with a uni does about as much damage as sitting
on it. If the table breaks from jumping on it then it was unsafe anyway
and the rider is being a good citizen by destroying potiential hazards
that could injure people.:rolleyes:

Along those lines, Making the hop, that cush off ruber, does about as
much dammage as spilling salsa on it.

I can jump off of a picnic table. Does that count?

mentioned? :p

I can pedal grab a picnic table, and seeing how I have a grindplate on,
I have never scratched a table, ever.

I havent worked on rolling hops all that much, but hopefully I can go
straight up onto tables soon.

I do prehops but not the right way, it adds no spring to my hop, its
just like a motion I go through to make it more comfortable.

Not doing prehops, that's weird... I still need to work on my static
hops, my static hop is like 60cm (23") , and my prehopped hop is around
90cm (35"). Oh well. To answer the question, yeah, I can. I think a
more fair measure would be a pingpong table, seeing as those are all
around 75cm.
