i see your copy paste function works.

This is the exact answer! I learned this the hard way when I first did enduros and motocross. You can fly through the air for an eternity if you land on a down hill slope (especially in enduros). Land on flat ground after being even 4' in the air and you'll pay dearly! :lol:Quote:

Pretty sure he broke a lot of bones, including his pelvis. Pretty sure he survived though.Quote:

Oh yeah, I LOVE going off big hangers. Where we do a lot of our riding there are designed areas to drop off and free fall for 30'+. It's the easiest thing in the world to do and the landing is so easy to absorb. It's just terrifying when you first start out. You're never more than a few feet off the ground but you are in the air for a LONG time. :lmao:Quote:

Now skiing, I started to get into some big jumps a couple years ago, landing on the downhill part of the headwall. I remember the first time I tried to do a double jump, wanted to make sure I had enough speed to clear the gap... overshot the landing, and while in the air, you just say "shit, shit, shit". It sucks when you are in the air, and you clearly know you overshot it.
Also happened to me doing a big jump, landing was great, but definitely hit it faster than I planned. I'd say I was about 25' in the air and went a distance of about 75'. I haven't come close to that since. Was over half way down the landing. I'm sure other have done bigger, but when in the air that long, it gives you plenty of time to regret being that high in the air.
Paying dearly is being 8' in the air and coming down on flat hardpack without the bike.... :lol:Quote:

Can't remember if I posted this a while back but it's always good for a laugh. Supposed to be representative of Brits.

painful. like listening to t-pain trying to do shakespeare.
Or under shoot it, I came up short one time on a real steep one. The jump would shoot you pretty high and you had to lock the rear wheel to pull the front down. I came up short and hit the front wheel on the lip. It bounced the front out then the rear hit and bounced me almost over the handle bars. I pretty much went down the ramp on the front wheel and crashed at the bottom. I didn’t really get hurt but it scared the shit out of me. lolQuote:

So, I just watched the most demotivating movie on the face of the planet. Shit's called 200 MPH. If anyone thought The Fast and the Furious was bad, trust me when I say this is WAY worse. I mean WAAAAAY worse.
First off, the description says the kid has to fix up his old Datsun 280Z to race and it ends up being either a RX-7 or 370Z, I don't know which one it was suppose to be because the story line was so completely jacked. He drives a green RX-7 for awhile and when they do animated drift scenes it turns into a S-14. These animated scenes are suppose to look real life, but whoever was working the mouse that day definitely did a terrible job at it. Oh, and absolutely outrageous acting, effin terrible.
Anyways, it's on Netflix. Here's the IDMB link 200 M.P.H. (Video 2011) - IMDb
If you want to laugh, it's worth the watch. Especially if you have a group of people that like to tear up terrible movies.
Sounds like a Job for!Quote:
