Damon W Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 (edited) As the title says i am curious at the level of riding and want to know a few things about a few certain top street riders. Craig Lee Scott: biggest static gap? Neil Tunni: biggest sidehop? Coustellier bros: biggest tap to backwheel? and need to know whats the highest people have heard of people hooking? partly bored ^^ partly curious^^ hmm (N) and your records follow!

JIX Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 It doesnt matter but it is interesting. The only problem with this sort of thing is who to believe. And people telling the whole story. For example, I can tap 65 inches to rear wheel. But it is a sloped wall and you can tap both the front and rear wheel and its basically not that hard to do. But I could just of said I can tap 65 to rear. You see what I mean. :sleeping: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Harrison Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 (edited) Ok, it would be interesting to know the answers to Damon's questions, HOWEVER.... what we don't need here is every member rolling in to say 'I can sidehop 42"', because as we know this is nowhere near 'the highest people have heard of' and just generates 6 pages of, well, rubbish. EDIT: That wasn't aimed at you JIX, it was a comment I decided to make having read the first post - your point is important too and I see where you're coming from.

Mark W Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 Of course the only problem is is that people still don't know what people like CLS have done. In any thread involving him and, say, sidehopping, it's always like "Oh, well we saw him do 54"" "We saw him do 55"." "He did 53" at the bike show!" "I like fish" And so on. It's still not concrete, which is why I guess they're so strict about how they do world records for trials riding (e.g. specific run-up for gaps/ups).

James_Porter Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 surely no ones side hopped higher than benito ross' 57"er, or have they.....urmmmmmmmmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JIX Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 I did 57.5 inches once James. Was trying to go to pedal and just landed on top. Amazing :sleeping: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Harrison Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 (edited) ^^^ who is this guy??? 57.5? I take my hat off to you. I was trying 45 the other day and it looked impossible... even if I make it you'll have done a WHOLE FOOT more!

RicH_87 Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 LMAO! good luck getting the coustelliers to post anything, nevermind their biggest achivements. plus i doubt the 'top' riders would wanna post their stuff, cos no-matter what their intentions, some people on here will take it as bragging and go off on one, as usual.

PaRtZ Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 my sidehop record is 5 pallets or average jean pocket height (i dont carry a tape measure around with me) Gap is 2.3 x zona zip wheelbase and drop is as high as I can reach there we go :sleeping: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damon W Posted October 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 no i wasnt asking the people to whom it involves to post up, i was just asking if anyone knew for definate the answers to: tunnis sidehops? cls's static gaps? cousts taps? thats it. and if you were happy with youre own acheivements to post em up, e.g "hey i did my highest ever hoppedyside yesterday, it was"...................you get the idea (Y) and the the thing VVEERRYY curious of is who, and how high has someyone sidehopped to wheels up something, on a 26" ??? i mean u always hear of people go "oh well benito can do 57" but never of anyone on a big bike, surely tunni or hermance must have done 55"?

I did, I did! The ginger kid on the Curtis! I said before! And then suddenly Phil produces this SelectBikes video and there's this guy called James Porter doing all this mad stuff... it was like Staples, I remember him just being this kid on a Saracen and then a couple of years go by and he's beasting it out left right and centre. When (if?) I sort my car this month I'll have to come down and ride Bristol to see what all the fuss is about. Oh yeah, the 5.5ft tap - that's the second time in this thread that I've been savagely tricked... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waynio Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 a little bit to the back on topic.................. i have done 53" to two wheels on 26" i have only ever done it twice. i have a theory that you have to do it more than 3 times to not call it spawny im going to take the bike and a tape measure there tonight and try and sort it out. at least 3 times in the night. altho iv got bigger fish to fry in keighley at mo................got some nice rail gaps and stuff to check out. i just hope i dont kill maself on those before i get another go at the sidehop..... anyway,,,,,,,,,some of you boys should come to yorkshire and do a bit of riding with us the street up here is nutts!!!! Waynio............................ you can always bell me to see if im out and about as im doing alot more now, out at least 5/6 nights a week.
