No,
There a huge uphill table at Perris Raceway. If I ever clear that I have no more jumping goals.
I love to jump but not 200 feet.
So for me that's a no.

Yeah, how cool is it to bang a 240' jump and kill someone?

Top in my book.

Take the stupid, pointless jumps to the dunes where the only ones that get hurt are the jumpers.

Oh, wait, I forgot, there's no sweet audience in the dunes.

Senseless Shit on a public track. Big Whoop, nice jump, never happen in race conditions nor should it.

I like watching big hucks but that's stupid

There was a jump at Jolly roger's (I think in NH) that was nutz. . .I was only there once but nobody did it. LaRusso and other hotshots were there...Wonder if anyone ever did it? anyone know?

Yeah, he was only a split second away from plowing that guy in front of him upon landing and jumped only mm's over his head on the next jump. Even if he only would have clipped the guys head, he probably would have killed him!

This..... If I had the sack to hit that jump, I would definitely make sure that it was clear ahead of me.

I can tell from that 5 second clip that he could kick Cairoli's ass big time.

I texted my 16yr old to watch that video. His reply was "I'm surprised his balls of steel didn't weigh him down and he cases the jump"

That being said I told he ever tries some crap like that I will kill him myself.

Ok I've jumped some big stuff and some stupid stuff.


After he hit that jump once or twice it transfers from cool to stupid IMO. Self preservation is kind of a real thing in moto

I'm sure lots of people were scared to even be on the track, kid clearly has no one but himself in mind. (And that's up for debate)

The jump at Jolly Rogers in NH was called the intimidator. Many people hit that jump. That jump was sketchy cause the takeoff was huge and right out of a turn making the landing blind. The landing was steep and not forgiving.. I recently heard someone may have purchased that facility.There are some videos on you tube.

That jump was nothing like this one. It was approximately 100 ft. Pretty sketch being blind like you said tho.

Woohoo
That dudes flying!!
I have no probs with big scary sketchy jumps right out of corners and stuff ....like straight up faces with 65-70 footers... ........But hitting shit like that at 65plus mph flying 200'.......FUCK NO!!!! Shocked Laughing

One thing.......not to smart going for that when there is other riders on the face and landings!!!Pinch
I give him the idiot award for that!

I was there it and it was more than just crazy. It was absolutely nuts. Not how big it was, but the small landing with a jump right after that. He was jumping off the track on exit. I told my son, doesnt he want a career in motocross? Attempting that was the risk, now that hes done it a few times, not so sketch for him.

I wonder if anyone has noticed that no one actually got hurt by this guy doing this jump yet and that everyone is mad about hypotheticals that didnt actually happen.

Good call. Let's encourage this type of behavior until some innocent gets killed, the track gets sued, etc. etc. then we can get upset about it.

When I first saw that video all I could focus on is the landing. A jump that big is sketchy just for how big it is, but when you throw that landing in there it pure retardation. Jumping that far inside of a rhythm section right before a jump? You call that kid crazy I call him suicidal.

There is absolutely no way I would try that jump ever. The risk of death is off the charts.

The first attempt must have been the scariest thing ever. Fuck, I don't even understand how local guys judge "big" jumps around here for the first time. That was just asking to die.

In the 2nd video he is lucky he did not smoke that slower rider, that would have been some sombering shit.

even though a lot of tracks have open ride its a good idea to split the practices up by skill level to keep bad things from happeneing

his first name is Rookie?
12/7/2014 11:57am
He comes in absolutely wide open while some other guy is rolling the jump at a very slow speed.





Then he lands and barely misses pile driving another guy who is rolling the next jump, luckily he was a couple of feet to the side of him.




There's a time and a place for that kind of jump and that was certainly not it. With other riders on track of such varying ability, it's way too dangerous and reckless in my opinion.

If you're scared of getting hurt then stay off the track. Thanks.

That was sick.

Are you just being a contrarian, or do you seriously not see the problem here?

Yeah it's a sick jump, but it's absolutely stupid to be doing it with other riders around him. He's lucky it didn't go bad. If that video didn't include other riders being put in harm's way then we'd all be gushing over it.

250? lol.

I'll say 175. Someone get on that with a yard stick. Closest guess gets a plush Big Bird.

Sick jump but but you are an idiot if you believe it is cool to risk putting someone in a chair so that you can be a cool guy.
