loganskinner Posted August 1, 2004 Report Share Posted August 1, 2004 (edited) freestyle? oh yeah i can do freestyle. im working on this one trick where right as i jump, i tilt my head a little to the left, then tilt it back. its one of those tricks that not many people can do, and when people see me do it, they know im a pro... it took a lot of planning, and its difficult, so please dont try it at home. and as far as candybars and can cans go, i got one candybar and a can of hawaiian punch here. thats about as far as that goes, because im with locogato, i stay on the ground most of the time.

98bonerSTOCKshee Posted August 1, 2004 Report Share Posted August 1, 2004 Red River Riding in Bonham, TX has a freestyle ramp, 2 actually, one for bikes one for quads.. I have been working up the nerve to launch it. 4 weeks ago a bunch of us went up there, a friend had a KX250 and is nutz, My boy called him a chicken, he tries the ramp. He ended up about 98% a the bottom on the landing on his ass. We all got back to camp and they were telling me about it, So, I told him if he did it and landed it this time I would go.. I was standing on top of the land pad (not very bright I know) which I would say is about 25 foot pile of dirt. I was looking up at him as he was about 10 foot higher than I. He was doing a major endo, landed about 3/4 the was at the bottom and went end over end.. Needless to say I didn't jump that night. He end up with a broken collar bone, stitches and a handle bar imprint across the chest.. But am I chicken...No I will hit the ramp next time I go. He screwed up he hit the ramp in 4th gear hammered. The quads I see jump it are in 2 or 3rd and not going very fast at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman Posted August 1, 2004 Report Share Posted August 1, 2004 I went to Durham Town Plantation and rented a 250EX...hehe. No big jumps on the trails but enough to pull off some small tricks. Nothings are pretty easy, half assed Lazy Boys are pretty easy too. Nothing real big but I do LOVE to get in the air. When I go to Oregon I jump the dunes and I get real high. Never tried to pull any tricks in the dunes though. The only thing keeping me from racing is freestyle. I like just messing around in the air more than going fast. I also raced some people. Call it bullshit but I beat a Raptor through the trails, on the rental 250EX. He didn't seem real experienced though. I thought he still would've beat me just because hey...it's a 660R versus a 250EX. Whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tithead Posted August 2, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 my biggest air was about 60ft.....nighty will back me up on that, he was there. i didnt pull any tricks on that run cos i took off squint and landed on 1 wheel.......it hurt! what the average size of a freestyle take off ramp, landing ramp and the size of the gap in the middle???? im wanting to build 1. iv never tried a ramp, iv usually gone out to look for big jumps and done everything off them. a new track has just opened near me, my mate was oiut there on his ktm 400exc and he said the jumps there have "your going to die" written all over them. as soon as the shee is back together im going to go up and try it out!

tats4life Posted August 2, 2004 Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 i can throw a killer whip on the shee if i got a killer launch........or just pray i can pull it back. i've hit a ramp tech kicker before, it was ramp to dirt landing, it just feels like your doing a short step up. I've always wanted to hit a kicker running wide ass open and land in a pond, but I'll just do it on my buddies KX250. Screwing around at the local bmx track on the fitty's was killer.......than my dumbass sold it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure of the exact specs. However the ramp that my buddy ate it over had about 1 foot or so on each side of my 'shee for the width. The lip is prob. 12 or so foot. They have a tabletop on the MX track that I was jumping over. (see my AV pic.) The tabletop has the same launch, vert and heigth of the frestyle ramp. the ramp has that damn gap! Most ramps can be moved close or far. 20-30 looks far from the ground. The pro's do 80 feet. I am gonna move that sucker spack dab next to the landing pad my first jump...And just move it farther and farther until it HURTz me!

iceman Posted August 3, 2004 Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 Anyone see the backflip? That's ultra crazy. I'm gonna do one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svtkid78 Posted August 3, 2004 Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 CHECK OUT FMXRAMPS.COM I HAVE THREE OF THEIR RAMPS AND THEY WORK GREAT. THEY HAVE A REALLY SMOOTH TRANSITION ON THEM. MY GAPS ARE BETWEEN 60-80FT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS TO HAVE A REALLY GOOD LANDING AREA. I REALLY WOULDN'T RECOMMEND THE BANSHEE AS YOUR FREESTYLE BIKE. IT CAN BE DONE, BUT I LIKE A LITTLE BIT MORE OF A BALANCED BIKE GOING 60FT. I RIDE MY 250R WHEN RIDING MY RAMPS. WISH I HAD A CAMERA THAT WOULD UPLOAD PHOTOS. GOOD LUCK.
