Quite a long video of Jack at the last national. I didn't film it only just found it.

On the proto Onza super-comp frame.

He's an absolute monster now, so controlled, especially for a 14 year old.

don't know how to embed it as i don't usually use the video section.

Enjoy!

Very Inspiring rider to watch on videos from what ive seen (never met him or seen him in real).

Would love to meet the lad and i wish i could ride like him ;)

Should have come across to Shipley at the weekend and had a go at the comp, that vid doesn't really do justice to the sections as you can't see how big the rocks really were or how steep the banking was in some of those shots!

At a guess I'd say round 6'2"-6'3"ish and easily the build of a 18-19 yr old. Absolutely just powers through sections like he's got all the energy and power in the world on tap, would love to see him move to 26" in the future!

Nah, under 6'1" for sure.

Breathtaking watch when you consider some of those climbing sections would set the average joe bloggs lungs on fire :$

Love that slick move at 01:25-01:30 where he locks up the rear slides down 45, then hops another 45 to face upwards on that rock slab even the music track went well with that.

That rock was really steep, when most people were checking the section out a lot were concerned about how they were going to get off the bottom cause it was so steep!
