The class sucked ass in every way but that particular piece of knowledge I use on a weekly basis. I’d say it’s accurate to +/- 2’ a lot of times when I’ll check the #’s with a rag tape. Assuming the distances I’m pacing are 50-250 ish feet.
There’s a good chance he’s lying out his ass, but assuming the pace method negates the accuracy I’d say isn’t fair.
Also, I'm sure you can be pretty accurate in terms of paces, just not perfect. Over the course of 160 feet, there is some significant margin of error.
The distance is one thing, video angles can change perspective so much. Him saying he was "at least" 30 feet above the jump face and "five stories" above the ground is just laughable at this point.
Hmm....
Pit Row
Yet you also have no proof it’s a 25 degree pitch.
I could care less about this made up distance he jumped I just had to say your post was funny.
One set of doubles on one part of the track could be exactly the same as another in terms of jumping it; same gear, same RPMs, same distance from takeoff to landing. To some extent, you can change the height at which you jump those obstacles, and thus change the total length of your bike's trajectory. The distance between the jumps remains the same, however, regardless of how high you boost it or how low you scrub it. Measuring the flight path is harder and also less consistent than measuring the gap.
Now apply the same logic to the low spot between the doubles. Is it almost flat, like a tabletop? Or deep, like a trench between? It makes absolutely no difference to you or your motorcycle if you are jumping it, but will measure very differently if walked off.
If we want a consistent measurement of the distance of jumps, it is takeoff to landing, in a straight line.
I don't care what you have to say, just the fact you think your point is special enough to warrant ANOTHER effing thread. Good for you.
You are a Flopper
Hello, VitalMX user.
You’re probably asking yourself, “why is this thread getting bumped?” Well, user Batesy here started a Deegan thread and Nathaniel, the creator of this thread, responded with “I don't care what you have to say, just the fact you think your point is special enough to warrant ANOTHER effing thread. Good for you.”
Batesy didn’t like this, and responded saying he was happy to get under Nathaniel’s skin. However, Batesy then decided to pull up Nathaniel‘s thread history to post a copypasta of Nate’s sharp response, showing that it was in fact Nathaniel who got under Batesy’s skin.
Stay with us as this fascinating story develops.
Still one of my favorite things to reference when someone talks about how big a jump is, even if it is a deep cut in Vital lore.
