What is your biggest jump wheteher it be a table or a gap.

Mine is around 9 foot half table half gap.

Not much but I consider it an achievment :)

the biggest gap ive done is about 15 - 20ft im not sure, you kinda just go far but dont get realy high of the ground, you can hit it as fast as you want and just keep going.

im not to confident on doubles but i still do em just not the big ones :wink:

15 ft double, and kept casing that table at the end of the Bacchus Marsh 4x track.... I think that's a good 25ft long, so I was getting maybe 20ft.

On a somewhat related note: yesterday I overcleared a 13ft double (yes I measure everything I jump - by stepping it out) by 9 feet.... landed with my front wheel on the upramp of the next jump; it was a kinda rhythmish 4pack. Went OTB and landed in the pit too... not nice. How the fuck I misjudged my speed by that much I'll never know.

Everyone starts somewhere.... my first "gap" was 3ft (seriously), the next one was about 7ft (that one almost killed me, I sucked way too bad to be trying anything over about 3ft!), and after that I got a bit more confident about trying new stuff.

at the bottom of a 20 somethin Ft road gap near my joint there is a little kicker about half a foot high goin down a hill.. i managed about 50ft off it.. only about 3ft in the air though.. yea i cleared that last table top at bacchus marsh.. biggest actual jump would be the two road gaps at trafalgar bikerX.. they are sweeeeeet, something like 7 or 8 meter gaps with 2m drop..

Farkin old people took over that spot! Literally! It used to be an empty block next to a train station, so some people built jumps there, then the council decided that geriatrics were more important, dozed the jumps, and built a nursing home. Those were probably the nicest jumps I ever saw. Only lasted about 3 months though.

Id have to agree they were the best djs ive ever seen as well, too bad they only lasted about 5 months i think. there were more jumps up behind the rollin aswell.
