Ali C Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 I am soooooo close to doing a 8 and a half foot gap near my house, I land on it but my weights too far back and I have to jump off. I recken I can do about 7 ft 11 most times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SQuiT-man Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 my record on my old giant stock was 9 foot giving it some serious aggression, from a pedalkick into a big pedalkick gap. On my mod, howver, my max is around a little below 8 feet as a guess. By the way the world record is 10.5 feet, 3.3 metres i believe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Pearson Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 On a proper flat gap I've made about 6 and a half to front wheel, so probably about the same as on the back wheel. But in exeter I did a drop gap that was about ten feet forwards adn about three feet down, which is easily the biggest I've done. Its in the new leeson trailer; will upload it here if anyone want to see it. Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomN Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 Biggest I done is about 7ft ish/below, was gapping a carpark gap and had the mesuring tape out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trials Tom Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 (edited) My biggest's 5'6" but thats from 3 pallets to 1 so probably a little less than that. Edited February 22, 2005 by Trials Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burton Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 about 7'4" but i did get a gap that was 7'9" with only 1inch of drop :o just shows how it can make a difference. :- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy P Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 Pallet to pallet 8.5 foot measured. With a little more momentum I think I could do nearer 9 foot. Andy P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fish-Finger-er Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 about 6 foot static at a guess, but im crap. did a 7 foot rolling one in worcester with my old bike and old diatech hub, but landed very very heavy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rich4130 Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 I done 6'8 to a curb, outside my house from a patch of concerete, everytime really. Doubt it could do it on a 'proper gap' though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm.. we'll see. Edited February 21, 2005 by Olly C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N.Wood Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 (edited) I've honestly never measured! I'll measure the gap between the 2 pallets sometime this week, thats pretty much as big as i can go. I can put my bike in there and it's wider than the widest part of my bike (axle level) but i have no idea what that is! EDIT: Measured the pallets, and they're about 2 inches under 8'. Might be able to go a bit bigger though, i'll give it a go at the weekend (N) Edited February 22, 2005 by N.Wood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prawny Baby Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 ive not measured one of my gaps for a long while, other than to say when i was riding lots 2 years ago, i made a measured 7ft 11 on the level, which i have on video, that was on my zebdi. back in october, at possibly my worst riding time ever we had a small gap comp at bigmans, sadly i dropped out after about 7ft 4, so that was terrible. now im back up there at in the high 7's, but i reckon if the need arose, i could probably break the 8ft barrier now, with a bit of a grunt, who knows ill have to get some new pallets and set up some gaps again! christ, i remember getting a snake bite on a 3ft static back on my saracen.... those were the days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Dave Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 7.11ft on my pitbull last summer. had that on vid, not sure where it is anymore. can deffinetly do bigger now not sure how much though (N) Dave :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
