Probably around 120 - 130 feet, was a massive tabletop. Also hit about a 90 foot uphill double me and my friend built at his house and that was probably the scariest thing I've ever done.

When I was young and stupid 100+ footers didn't bother me a bit, now that I'm old and feeble I keep it under 60. I like the 30 to 50 range. I still feel 100% in control with those. I can still go bigger but I get this nervous feeling in the pit of my stomach so I don't. Getting old does have it's downsides but the positives far outweigh the negatives.Wink

This double at a track called Mountaineer in WV. Everyone called it the 90 footer, but I think it was more like 70-75.

Not that long of a jump, but we had a freestyle jump and an old little debbie truck so for some reason it just made since to jump it! Smile

Im 45 and have a business to run and a family to feed so I try to just avoid the big boy jumpslol . My son on the other hand can hit the 140FT quad at the local track and make it look easy.

Monterone has hit some serious gaps back in the day.

Cainville is good too. The only nice thing about Glamis is if you come up short or something, just close your eyes and hold your breath, because sand gets in Everything.

What makes Glamis fun is the amount of Big floaters you can find, not too big, not too small, but just fun as hell.

Like this one of Richmond.

Cainville is a great place to ride. Eveyone should hit this place up in winter.

But it was the approach that made it so intimidating. Here's 2001.



There was once a table/table at Bithlo that was a huck for a 125. 2002 also.





Also at hardrock around 2001, when they would run night practice they would cut out the that little finish uphill and have a 85 foot booter that jumped over where you would normally turn for the finish line. Not big distance, but big air. Felt like you were 50ft high.

There were always new 100 footers out at PaxTrax made out of mulch lol.

But as far as Florida tracks go, Panama City mx had some fun big jumps. They knew how to work a step up. The 110ft triple stepdown into the pit was kinda sketchy though.
Loved that water tower jump. Used to cut the track and go around and hit it again and again. Would've been around 1997 or 98 when they built it. Click fourth on a KX250 about halfway up the hill and lean left over the lip. Landing so long, couldn't go wrong.

Recently I did a 15' step up on the bmx bike that had me puckered like a 90 foot double.
I rode off the center plateau at Oldsmobile Hill in Glamis 5th gear pinned on a 85 250R three wheeler. Never measured but walked it off at 120'.
Not sure how big the back table at Glen Helen was back in 03 but it was far. There were some things at Perris Raceway in the early 2000's that were not big but definitely scary.
Dumont Dunes new years 2001 we had this figure 8 going with a bunch of strangers where we were jumping over eachother... again not measured but 4th gear fast step down at least 100' to make the gap and about 150' to the g-out. By far the gnarliest natural terrain jump I ever did. Here are some old pics old some of the jumps described.

Mostly have video but here are a few on my computer i found. Not to big but fun. I jump just about anything still at 37 years old. I always had the mindset since I was a kid that if there is a triple i triple and if there is a quad i quad. I also have been known to quad when there was not supposed to be a quad. lol The elevator when it was at its biggest was the scarriest but not biggest. I jumped a steel ramp at Seminole a few times and it was huge and fun. No cell cameras back then only a disposable camera. Dave Kimmey built this one years ago and it was easy but fun. This one at Seminole was one of my favorites not to big but Iong. It had a single right before the take off and you were pinned down a long straight before it. It was really safe though.

Just hit my first ramp to dirt yesterday 80ft gap. Done longer triples and tabletops on the track, but nothing compares to hitting a ramp for the first time.

Lip to lip, it's 90'. You couldn't pay me enough to huck that on a quad! At least on a bike you can get away from it if shit goes wrong. Can't on farm equipment.

My question is, how did those ape hangers hold up on the landing?
Those are early model pro taper's, they helped prevent dentist trips from head slams on big jumps like that. I bet they did fine!!

I once launched 120 feet over an 80 foot table top while making the pass into first place. Woke up about 40 feet too far in last place surrounded by paramedics.
