the truck flip was down in the foam/box pit but the last one he way over jumped it and did a 1/2 front flip and broke some things but he survived

that jump was 98 meters, hes comin to australia to try a jump thats 120 meters!!!! im too lazy to convert that to feet for people:D
LukeyEL

120 meters is around 394ft, if he can do it, thats absolute bullshyte !!
I dont think it can be done, yet.
He only broke the record by 12 feet, now we are talkin bout him breaking his own record by over 70 feet.
Its just a matter of time really.

when i race there is a track that has a 135ft double that i do on my 250F, and it kinda nuts for racing. hitting 322ft is just absolutely crazy, and like going 90mph on a bike to do probably feels like your going like 150, lol

well to beat the world record for longest motor assisted bmx jump then you would have to go 113 feet :D
edit: motor assited meaning towed by a mtorbike or car or something like that.

Yeah, dam that was gnarly. It's hella funny cuz he wanted to do it again. Did he do it? I was too busy talking to the girl and drinking some stuff; then playing ping pong!

Dam...I've hit a 85ft table top down at a track in Valencia, California. I've also done a 60ft step up at my local riding park(Carneige SVRA). You clear a road and then another 20ft of hill. You gotta hit that shit like 4th gear pinned....hauling ass up the hill for like 65 seconds before u get to the step up.
250F also, 02 Yamaha Yz250f actually. Ton of work done.

ya, 4th pinned on a 250f is moving pretty good too. there is this track in Kingsley, Mi area that has transponder to tell your fastest MPH on the track and your laptimes, well, my fastest MPH was 45 and that was 4th tapped down this like 114ft like triple stairstep dropoff thing. but when you hit it, it feels like your going like 80. when you actually see your fastest speed, you just like ****, i feel like im slow now, but really your cranking. if Robbie was going 90mph like they said he was, i would literally shit myself going that fast before i hit the jump. props to him is all i gotta say...

No way he was going 90mph.....that was about 75-80 tops. I've hauled ass in 5th gear down a long straight while riding supermoto; geared for hella good top end. ****, I was going like 55 and it felt frigging like 80.
I always wanted to try like a 100ft triple but scared as hell; eat major shit if you miss. That's why I like table tops. I'm not the best at riding track but I'm still decent, I could ride B class probably. Trails are where its at; I like single track loose dirt or muddy wide open hill climbs. Carneige SVRA in California; offers the best of both.

he has one of the best steering dampers so he can haul as fast as he wants and he wont get head shake or wobble
