rich4130 Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 Evening, just wondering what kind of distance people are static gapping, I really need to work on them and wondered an about area to aim for. Just straight static gap, no fancy half stroke things etc. Cheers Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Drewery Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 (edited) I can gap just under 8ft static flat to flat, drop gaps I dont know as I never do them. (Y) EDIT:Seeing as the picture has been on here a while, here is one of my bigger gaps. I find I can gap to my best ability on pallets though as I dont land hard.

Prawny Baby Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 sadly.... i generally cant go above 8ft.... ive reached 8ft on a few occasions, but ive never exceeded it.... normally 7'-7'6'' on an average day i guess.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spode@thinkbikes Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 Quite wierdly, I can actually 180 gap hop (i.e two wheels on a line, one kick across the gap while 180ing and land on the other line) further than I can gap hop! I think 7-8ft for both. I've never bothered measuring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
