haha yeah yeah. I was a little over Zealous with my takeoff speed.  Maybe its time to get some suspension or lessons from one of "The Rats"

All I can say is those Niner forks are Solid after close inspection its still 100%.

I cant see a Chinarello fork flexing like that and not becoming a pile of splinters.

Besides the take off speed you got everything right. I would suggest dropping your saddle out of the way. It makes a big difference when you are in the air and realise you have overlooked it. You can just move your ar$e way back to keep the front up or bring the bike up into your body if undercooked :D. I cannot jump with saddle up to save my life. Just pitches me forward OTB every time, especially small kickers.

Now I understand that dude number 5 freaked out when he saw it was a large gap so decided to aim to miss the landing, thus going in the bushes. But WTF was dude number 6 thinking?

 

Hilarious is an understatement.

I can only imagine he saw Rider 5 going off and decided it was a bit above his pay grade. You see how he was slamming anchors!?

Just had another thought... Dude number 4 looked like he may have been going OTB but he just landed nose heavy and rode it out. 5 wasn't taking any chances and made a split second decision to bail out. Dude 6 probably thought that if 5 was bailing he better too, as there could be a problem he hasn't seen.

......and those two trees on the exit....... get it completely wrong with a wobble and you are "tree hugging".

There are those type of spectators always.

I always get one or two that ask me (being a girl of course) if I also jump that. Then they applaud us. Some just sit there looking at us sprinting up and down to jump this thing, I think they must think we are stupid doing it for entertainment.
