I think I'm missing something because I don't see what is interesting or out of the ordinary here.

Sure doesn't look like a 120ft jump. Looks a little bigger than our booter at 70ft +/- a few....

Exactly what I was thinking, 120 ft with that run up would be WFO off the lip on a 250f...and he lets off big time.

Calling it 120ft is a bit generous... nice plug for your shit state vlog though....

Only thing I got from that video is that one dude sounds like John C. Riley from step brothers.

So much hate... why's everyone so salty? Maybe It wasn't 120 ft. But I think that was the wrong thing to promote about the video. These guys seem to be what real MX is about... family and friends hanging out and enjoying themselves.

Keep having fun and doing your thing guys!

Maybe NY is the new FL when it comes to measuring jumps?

I think people are just confused by the point of this post. The title is 120ft + flat land #sketch. Not 120ft and can't see the landing #pointless. It was a shameless plug to get us to watch 10 minutes of who knows what or "hey look at me, I hit my first real double".

Ease up fellas.
Everyone I know calls it a 120footer around here, did he measure it, probably not, but it's what it's been known as (I've never been there but know of that track).
As far as Colton goes, I know him and you'd be lucky to have this kid around your neck of the woods. He's a great kid. He's never too cool for anyone, always smiling and laughing and just pumped on just about everything. He is everything moto and loves the sport and does a ton to help promote the sport in WNY. Give the kid a break. And furthmore, he time stamped it so if any of you did click on it, you could've went straight to that part.

I've measured some jumps at our local tracks with my archery range finder (which I know is true), just out of pure curiosity. Looking at them in person eye ballin them, I had guessed they were 40-50 ft doubles and 60-70 foot tables. Turns out the doubles were actually 55ft-60 ft and the tables were 75-80 ft lip to down side. I was off about 10-15 feet easily from eye ballin it. It's hard for me to tell from the video, but I was really surprised at some of the distances of the jumps I've measured. Just looking at the video, I would have swagged that jump at about 100ft. But again, my point in all of this is, until you shoot it with a range finder you never know and looks can be deceiving.

Very anticlimactic. That's all. Think most people, myself included, opened this thread expecting something a little more Seth-like
