mat hudson Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 you sure lee? just like, i struggle to get over 6ft consistantly now static, and seeing as you have ridden for a grand total of fag all time i have the choice of 1)being impressed or 2) completely not believing that also, its easier to do bigger drop gaps, for exampleeee the railway station gap i did? my biggest static was a touch over 7 foot, and my biggest rolling wasnt far off 9 back when i rode alot, trouble is, maintaining that kinda standard of riding is welllll hard with a full time job and other things to do i think im back to begginer levels again :$ i got a 6ft after fag all time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz M Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 I hate these topics, because its such a bitching contest and everyone just assumes your lieing...but in the good reason of the topic (being able to see where you stand compared to everyone else) il answer your question, just under 10ft flat after 2 years of pretty constant riding.Did'nt make it this attempt, but made it twice before Thats 8 foot at at push. If you could gap ten foot im pretty sure youd be making a mess of 8 foot every time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jsy Ben Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 This is in my garden yes it is a drop gap but i am only using it because i know that it measures out as 10 of my feet, measuring out as 8ft 5 on the tape measure...10 of my feet = 8.5ft[attachmentid=6952][attachmentid=6953]Because we dont take tape measures out with us whilst riding with judge things using our feet, so this means for me to gap 10ft it would have to be 11 and roughly a half of my feet...10 / 8.5 = 1.176 (3dp) 1 = 1.176 (3dp)8.5 + 1.176 (3dp) =9.676 (3dp) 11 of my feet = 9.676 (3dp)half of 1.176 = 0.588 (3dp) this means half of my foot = 0.5889.676 + 0.588 = 10.2 (1dp)I have proved now that 11 and a half of my feet is just over 10ft.Now heres how my first post came about...[attachmentid=6955]I was reluctant to post in this thread as i know something like this always happens, i said before "i hate these topics"None the less, now i have to go out and get a pic of a 10ft gap...will update within the week most likely.ps. Gaz that was a cock and balls atempt at that gap, i HAVE nailed it succesfully several times and continued along the oppiste wall and down then a gap down to the last step... obviously you cant take my word for it, so its in the next video.witness_kial.doc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz M Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 (edited) Im not trying to offend you i do beleive youve made it, but what im saying is if your are gapping ten feet (tape measure style ) then you will be alot higher in the air then you were on that gap but if it was just a shite attempt then fair enough. Ten foot is big and you have to understand theres gonna be some contraversy about that because its barely possible and the gap on your garden thats 8 foot 5. if youve made ten foot then i suggest you try from the pallet upto the fence thingy Edited September 9, 2006 by Gaz M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jsy Ben Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 (edited) Yeh Gaz fair enough its understandable. Just been out filming on my course, mainly trying the 10ft gap, heres a short video...http://www.eengoedidee.nl/videoz/download....st_attempts.wmvRight now, i can not be arsed to continue debating the whole matter, it has put me in a foul mood because no one will belive it, frankly now i dont care either. Ive realised, again, and i always seem realise when these topics come up that i shouldnt care what people think, we all love going out and riding, all love going out trying new tricks, trying to go higher, further...etc so im going to completey put this whole matter aside. Im going to mainly ignore all the answers in this topic because i hate it and instead im going to go riding, not to prove to any one i can do stuff but purely to have fun with what i can do.But, after writing that, i see on the other hand i am over reacting to peoples replys to an extent, sorry guys, i do see Gaz's point more clearly now too...ps. Gaz i wouldn't dare go to white pillared wall thing if i broke it, id be in alot of trouble.
