thanks for making that video mike its sweet.

the camera made an effect of watching a video highly eddited.. haha actully looks SICK.. to me at least
the music matched the "editing" ahha

Bad Ass!!

Mike, we need to go riding!!!!

This is Nick with the Black Truck and the Honda Rancher 4X4 (Red)!

I was think @ Myakka today!

what track is that.

bartow MX. nice vid BTW. would be better if you hit the triple :P

I was the first day I was there, but its hard to triple and then get set up for the big double right after it so I was just doubling it then geting enough speed for the big double. Next time im going to put both jumps together though.

theres a double right after it. i dont remember seeing it in alans topic. :-\ oh well

no theres the triple then a burm right after it so u have to break hard, then out of the corner is the big double. its not that big but it takes a high 4th gear to clear for me.

theres the triple, a turn a step down then the double....atleast 10 seconds between the two jumps but whatever  ???

thats what i was thinking. and you have plenty of room 2 stop.  :-\

Hey Darren didn't you almost clear the double and the triple with a fried clutch?? ;)

well i dont ride a dirtbike but if you clear the triple you do have to slam on the breaks and you are still hitting the turn pretty fast but i dont think the double really had anything to do with it....if you hit the triple you are going to be taking the turn faster than if you only double it.... so i dont really see how tripling it would make it harder to double after the turn....oh well lol


Lol almost....wish i had realized the clutch was that bad before i tried it a few more times....  :-\

If you jump the triple u have to brake hard its more technical than your making it sound. And ive cleared both jumps to just not both back to back, but like I said next time im going to put both jumps together.

more technical? you land the triple then you have to brake and take the turn whether or not you are hitting the double. you are going to be coming out of the turn with the same speed regardless but maybe its more "technical" for you cool guys on dirtbikes

Ya maybe, but I was hiting the big double every lap and now just need to hit the triple befor it. the reason I think the big double is more easy is its a big straitaway after u land so u dont have to brake right away and risk fly over the berm and crashing. But if the triples so easy why didnt any of you hit it. 

i did hit it.....on a quad....with barely any clutch. almost cleared it too but hit the top of the last one. ill do it again once i fix my clutch.

nice video, but i didnt see you hit the big double!! :-\

and when i get my shocks in, and maybe my exhuast ill do the triple!  maybe :-\   there is a huge straight a way in front of it so i know i can get plenty of speed!! i think :-\   

OMG Josh I'll make sure to have the medic handy! J/K Actually Darren did the triple :o I don't think I'll be hitting it too soon since I've only raced 4 times and been on a track about 6-7 times. But I'm hitting it before Josh. And I'll be on stock shocks and exhaust lol :-\

your gonna hit ti before me!! ::)  ya.....ill still be with my stock exhuast for a while!  but shocks wont be stock! if i had them this weekend i would probally do it :-\  but i dont think i will until my shocks come in!!

Ive hit it to and I clear the big double no problem, its just that when I hit jumps I make sure to not  clear them not almost clear them. I'm not going to go out and hit a jump I dont feel comfortable hiting every lap esspessially during practice. But I saw your video u ride good for a quad so I bealve u jump the triple.

Josh next time u ride out there let me know Ill try to head out.

ya... maybe we will have open practiceso i can whoop you!!!  lol JK  ill call your house, ill also make sure i wont call you at 4:00 :P

its ok to call at 4:00 as long as it isnt 4:00 a.m. like befor lol.

Maybe I have a bit to lose if I crash!! LOL But I'm sure I will sometime.

i know all of u saw me flyin over that triple and double...in front of reed! dont play dumb, i was owning that "pro"  :P

Yeah Alan that was amazing......you sitting on the chair and filming! By the way where is my video?

dont change the subject!  :P i dont have it, talk to darren. im looking forward to getting my clutch fixed, i was thinking about the triple before that corner beat me up  :ouch.gif

The triples just alittle difficult atleast on a bike cause the same foot you use to pivot and turn with you have to break with. and when you clear the whole triple you have alot of speed going into the corner. for me clearing it isnt a problem but landing and braking in time smoothly is pretty hard.

ill do the triple and i have no back brakes 8)







































how tall is that berm  :P

Not that big its sorta alittle berm with acouple ruted out lines and really sandy. The track isnt that sandy but that corner seems to get pretty rough.

don't worry jake you can just go over it like robby did haha. the sad part is he didnt do the triple and still jumped the berm! and that video of me sucks. i was riding really slow because i had no clutch

no, you had a clutch it was just fried. :P

just watch the video of the pros....they find way to make the brem lol maybe thats why they are pros   ::)

thanks jake lol....

alot of you don't realize that racing a bike is alot more difficult then a quad. not saying a quad is easy a bike is just way harder

i guess you didnt notice the sig......ya i have both, i know that i relized the difference, but i will hand it to all the quad rides, its a ALOT of work! dirt bikes work u and you are constantly up and down on it, but remember, quads wieght more, and wear u like crazy! i wasnted really paying attention to what this thread was about but i saw the last post and thought i would comment  :P

haha! ok time for my 2 cents.... Do you have any idea what you are talking about? Have you ever raced a quad on an MX track? Have you ever raced a dirtbike on an MX track? This thread was about jumping a double and a triple and I don't know if you realize it but dirtbikes have a much easier time accelerating up to a jump and getting a clean line.  They can choose any line on a jump they want and it will send them fine.  Quads have to choose where to launch from while trying to pick up enough speed to clear the jump....Please think before you post....

Yea Darren your 100% right ;)

With a Dirt Bike you cn launch off any part of the jump and their lighter ans faster to clear the jump.  but on a quad the face of the jump has to be even or it will throw you of to the side and can mess u up.  Plus when racing quads we get killed by the bike's leaving rutts on the track.  But on the other hand we groom the track for the bike's ::)

Wow thanks Besim for repeating what I just said lol.... and I know i'm right  :N

I dont no whats easyer to ride cause I've never rode a quad really that much ive always rode bikes. But from the looks of it theres alot less up and down on a quad which is alot less work and it's probably alot easyer to burn threw corners. Ill give it to you on the jumping thing thow it is probably harder to jump a quad.

now dont u all run off with the quads being so hard....dirt bikes are still really difficult....berming through turns? the both have there ups and downs.....lets end this arguement because there is no real solution   ::)
