I stand by that an 'on off' is a different obstacle than a table.. Sure they look the same still called a table but it's what it's surrounded by that changes it. (In a rhythm or on it's own)
1. You never jump onto from another single and off over another single with a normal stand alone table top. (Yes that should never be called a double)
2. Watch the Reed vlog from Cardiff, while standing in a rhythm with Brayton he says "I asked them what the length was of the table, and they said it's regulation, but it feels short" Now why would a 'table' need to be a regulation size?
3. You don't call whoops a series of small singles
In summation if you jump from one takeoff over a landing, over another take off/landing and land on the third landing option..
You got yaself a quad.. Plus what ML says
Follow-up questions, while you guys are here. If there’s a single with a table after it that has a single on top of the table, if you land on the backside of the single on the table, did you double? And if you land at the end of the table (after the single), did you triple? Or would landing on the table but right before the single be a double, landing on the backside of the single on the table makes it a triple, and making it to the landing of the table make it a quad? And if you did land right before the single on the table, does that mean you double the table-single to the landing of the table? If you single then jump the whole table, did you triple since there’s a single on the table?
Calling that jump a quad quad at straight rhythm makes us look stupid as a sport. My wife who rarely watches what I watch, when asked about that, said it's a triple. She said why would they call it 4 jumps? It's three.
Yep. Repeat after me you math challenged spodes, 3 jumps = triple. 4 jumps = quad. Anything else is just stupid.
This is how I view it. #1 I would call it a quad if I jumped all the way down. It's only 1 giant mound of dirt, but with specified landings carved into it.
#2 I would just call a double. It's a single to table, but it's not designed to land on top of, just safer if you would case it. It's a jump it all the way or don't jump it obstacle.
#3 I'd call a single to table with a double/triple option to it. It has a designated lip on top to land on for slower riders, and faster riders can clear the whole thing. I'd say "yea I tripled it" if I did it.
#4 I would call a step on step off. Double on, double off, clear the table, I'd say "I tripled it", and "I did the quad" if I jumped all the way to the final landing after.
#1 is just a tabletop. You can land anywhere in the middle, but there's no designated landing spot except the end. It's just a table. If I didn't clear it, I'd say something like "I'm only jumping about halfway down the table".
#2 is a tabletop with a double/triple option. It has a designated landing in the middle, so I would say "I'm just doubling it" or "I'm tripling it". It's not about distance, it's about designated/regularly used landings.
On a flat surface without extra obstacles, a tabletop is still just a single jump, no matter how many different places you can land on it.
But there are extra obstacles, the single after it is included in the 'on off' there are 3 landing options with the on off obstacle!
I say tabletop on it's own single jump
Single before a tabletop I'd say something like double over a table
But (you hate that I started a sentence with but don't you? haha) that single after the table changes everything due to the options it brings and deserves the 'quad' name as it's risky to land on the THIRD landing option
Pit Row
So we all agree this is a quint then??
You are correct. I count 5.
^ Yessir. Five jumps is a quintuple jump. It would still be if one of those had a flat area on top.
If someone does a quad at the track and No one is there to see it, is it still a quad?
I say QUAD. But I could also say: if you have a SINGLE SINGLE TABLE and you say "he tripled over the table" , I would accept and understand it, even though I say its a quad over the table. Because its still "triple onto the table" so jumping over would be a quad. Again like McGrath says, it depends on how the section is able to be used. for OG: If you can't use the middle table and jump on off, then its basically a triple because there is no actual table top to use as a dual option.
Edit: If the people that don't want to consider it a quad please start saying "Leap Frog Over Table" that would be great. Would really show the intelligence level..lol
I said what I said
nope.
There are no quads in this picture.
1 = Single
2= Double to tabletop
3= Double-over tabletop
4= Triple
Let's bring this back to the basics. What is a jump? It's dirt built up above the level ground that causes your bike to "jump" above ground level. Therefore, a double jump must be two jumps that have two separate takeoffs, where you could combine them into one jump by jumping the first jump and skipping the second takeoff. You could land on the downside of the second jump, or land past the downside. It's a double jump because there's two places you could jump.
A tabletop is therefore a single jump. A step down is also a single jump. A table with a hump in the middle is a double jump with a stepdown. Not a triple as there are only two places to actually jump.
A single to table step off to back side of a single is a triple as there are three places to actually jump. You could single and land before the table, jump the table, then jump the single after the table - three takeoffs = triple. NOT a quad. That's how I see it anyways
What if you roll the first jump roll up onto the table then off over the last single?
3 landing options
4 takeoff options
Quad
I just saw sexton jump a sick ass quad at Mumfords breaking in his race bike can’t wait till he bust some quads this year. Not the table over that 10 guys in the class are jumping im talking the 80foot big dog quads that 2-3 guys jump.
