I love big jumps like this. They're MASSIVE but they're mellow so there's no real risk of getting seriously injured as long as you fully commit, you'll definitely make it over the tallest part.
@@larryburchfield9965 that's actually cross country. MX is closed course competition. I only transitioned mx to cross country when my throttle stuck......
@@ogarnogin5160 I've been to three different tracks where people were going AROUND the SX sections. 98% of the riders didn't like the additions, preferred the more natural terrain. Jumps were primarily to slow the bikes a bit. Look at early superbowl of mx footage. Insanely fast on the tracks. Jumping is boring to watch. I'll take a nice outdoor natural track.
Sick jump! I love those 4stroke rattling at rev limiter! One thing I really love is how you (in the US) build jumps and tracks...I'd prefere this kind of jump-long & high but built thinking about safety-rather than some our tracks in Europe in which you'll find vertical ramps and short landings...it's dangerous and not really funny if you miss the right speed...God bless MX riders!
Holy smokes!!! ...and for those who thinks it doesn't look like the distance. ..take a look at the motor home behind...gotta be a 30-40 ft MH....and line 'em up!!! The level of skill to hit this is beyond!!! Awesome. ..thanks for posting!
I used to look at these jumps in awe too, but then I discovered the only real trick is commitment - you *must* hit the jump with proper energy, too much is better than too little. Now I feel like maintaining powerband through a 180 degree turn through loose dirt is the real skill. Or maybe whoops? But busting huge air on a dirtbike is pure joy!
I think when they designed the jumps...they were laid out to be two 40' jumps...nothing really daunting for C- riders. But being SoCal...it was not long before people were gapping it.
They aren't seat bouncing it called pre-load, their putting weight on the back shock so it compresses and at the end of the lip it rebounds out pushing them farther..
Cameron Gillott seat bounce is just a lazy preload but preload none the less...I agree with cameron...bouncing on the seat as you say sounds like you have been a bad boy....
That's literally what a seat bounce is, they arent seat bouncing because when you stand up it throws the bike forward. This jump is to fast to be doing shit like that, so they jump down on the pegs and compress the shocks. Well that's a lazy way of explaining it but anyone that's road for awhile gets what I meant.
You might be right, but nowadays most of people prefers huge jumps and perfectly prepared tracks, flying 100ft or more is great fun. Although in my country is still muddy and wet sport. Greetings from Poland. and sorry about my bad English ;)
@D fitz No, I ride here at least twice a week, and while I can admit I haven't had the balls to hit it yet, I've talked to several people who have. It's for sure going to be 5th on a 250f, I've heard almost tapped and someone strait up said 5th wide open. The problem is its hard as fuck to get your momentum up enough with the short run at it on a 250f.
I live in Italy so I don't know the situation in UK...but sometimes tracks here are boring,short (we don't have a lot of space),dangerous or tremendously bad built! Anyway we try to keep our throttle wide open! :-)))
How much throttle which gear on a stock 250f(yamaha)? Please, only the ones who have done this jump before on a 250f or ones who know for sure respond. Please, no spam.
I saw a guy hit a bird on a jump once. Or maybe the bird flew into him, I don't know. He had feathers stuck to his helmet, it was hilarious. He stuck the landing though.
Yea, its technically a big jump..... but its a SAFE jump. Meaning, it might be scary looking in distance.... but there is not a whole lot that is going to go wrong if you come up short...(ie. you cant really case it...) in fact A LOT of guys were coming up short in this video... and not a whole lot is going to go wrong if you over jump it...
agree..safe as it gets...What's good about it you can learn slowly and not have to clear the whole thing and still live...you come up short on true 165 double your life will never be the same...injury for life or death...So in real life I call it doable...Agree also most aren't clearing the whole thing...So only the guys with super speed are clearing it and landing softly so still hard to get full 165..
Safe is relative. There is nothing safe about any double that requires that much speed to clear. The landing might not look that steep, but come up short going that fast and you are in serious trouble.
bill wilson yes i agree high speed landings always shrink the nads....u miss my point...A true 165 gap may never be a real for average rider due to one shot deal make it or die but on this jump u can start slow....40ft...60ft...80...100..as long as u dont come in front low and do over the bars move all other landings are RELATIVELY safe ending in a little bounce or two...In other words DOABLE...
I didn't see no one case what i'm talking about, i'm talking about landing on the face of the 3rd hump looks like 50mph to zero in 14" ..............I think you are talking about landing between the 4th and 5th hump.... if so I understand.
All you guys are arguing about what gear to be in. After you've been riding for a while, and after you roll the jump a few times, it's a pretty natural feeling for what to do and what gear to be in. Just looking at it, if I HAD to jump it first lap, I'd tap it out in 4th and pray.
I so badly want to try that, i find longer jumps easier. The more air time gives me longer to correct, but i feel like I wouldn't want to get into a situation where i have any correcting to do haha
I'm going to have to agree with mxracer6y... it's not that bad... my buddy's has a 120-170 feet distance over a ridge top in between trees and you between 25 and 35 feet in the air... I'll post a video in the next few days after we ride. Check out hyampomhonda in the next few days...
Pretty impressive if you consider that the Wright Brothers first flight was only 120 ft.
These are Pilots not Riders....👌🏽
Lol
That’s a good one
Only hahaha
@@rdizzo1313 yes but they couldn’t even go that distance back then on anything and now days we are doing it on normal Dirtbikes
I love big jumps like this. They're MASSIVE but they're mellow so there's no real risk of getting seriously injured as long as you fully commit, you'll definitely make it over the tallest part.
Commitment is indeed the key. Once you discover that, these big jumps become smooth as butter and pure fun.
Well it's not there anymore for some reason
So appreciate the LACK of music...almost like being there.
I remember when motocross was more than just a series of jumps connected by straight away. Miss the old tracks.
@@larryburchfield9965 that's actually cross country. MX is closed course competition. I only transitioned mx to cross country when my throttle stuck......
Jumps are what the spectators like. I agree. To many jumps now.

Lucky for you those tracks still exist
@@One777oto72ide cahuilla is a great natural terrain track. DG/sand mix. Stewart ride there a bit. The great tracks are gone, sadly.
I love how its so easy for the 450s, axell is on the back fender pinned 😂
i bet i could seatbounce this on a 50
Use an xr70 just to be sure
pfp checks out
Same
50/50 chance u make it
if your thinking about seat bouncing it then yea,, you most probably know your chances, lol, done it on a 450 when at ride california,
Honestly, that looks like a very easy jump. Nice big run-up, smooth take-off, nicely done.
Sick jump! I love those 4stroke rattling at rev limiter!

Man I hear that
Jumping does not make you a good rider.

Dude on the YZ 125 was the best.
it was 250
my bad yeah I heard it
My YZ250 doesn't sound anything like that.
CLEARLY a 125!.
Honestly it's hard to tell all you heard was alittle bit of throttle, but it sounded more like a 125 to me.
Guys, this is 2 doubles being quadded, not 1 big double:)
I think when they designed the jumps...they were laid out to be two 40' jumps...nothing really daunting for C- riders. But being SoCal...it was not long before people were gapping it.
I can watch this all day long. kinda strange
I like that its built fairly safe, as long as you clear the main gap you can land just about anywhere
Awesome! I love Motocross.
Vraiment joli!!!!! J'adore:-)))) je veux le même terrain.....pour m'amuser le dimanche avec mes potes!!!!
that suzuki boy really is a BADASS!
0:40 boss
Holly shit! Those bikes are like going 40 or 50 feet in the air How can you make the landings softly though
They aren't seat bouncing it called pre-load, their putting weight on the back shock so it compresses and at the end of the lip it rebounds out pushing them farther..
I thought it was front and back shocks for preload. And seatbounce is just rear shocks only..
TrollMaster300 Nope wrong, you can Pre load with the front shocks not even moving. Seat bouncing is literally bouncing on the seat...
Cameron Gillott seat bounce is just a lazy preload but preload none the less...I agree with cameron...bouncing on the seat as you say sounds like you have been a bad boy....

How do they lift the front end once the ass end is already high?
Pala shutdown and it sucks. If you are looking for a new track though, I would recommend The Ranch in Anza
mis rrespetos para estos pilotos..son one machine...
where is this? soo sick
I have never raced before but do you down shift on turns
@D fitz No, I ride here at least twice a week, and while I can admit I haven't had the balls to hit it yet, I've talked to several people who have. It's for sure going to be 5th on a 250f, I've heard almost tapped and someone strait up said 5th wide open.

do these guys crash if so post the video
by the way i did a 300 foot gap on my xr80r
Suuuuuure you did...
what, did you put a 1300 turbobusa engine in it?
lol, and i did Lorocco's leap on a shopping cart!
by 300ft gap, do you mean your mom
Paul Denham maybe it's his mouth
great camera work
donde se encuentra esa pista?????
Im on a 09 KX450 13T / 48T what gear!?!?!?! 4th pinned, 5th?
what appen if you go short? this is mi biggest fear!
You crash
gregggiddens i know...it was a rhetorical question...
One does not simply go short on a jump like this
VCR xx HUNTER11 yes but sometimes things happen that we hadn't expected...
I was always told its better to be long than short. Short got me a dislocated shoulder, 2 broken ribs, and a sprained knee.
So many great riders, they made it look so easy... I think I could do it? NOT!
I live in Italy so I don't know the situation in UK...but sometimes tracks here are boring,short (we don't have a lot of space),dangerous or tremendously bad built!
Anyway we try to keep our throttle wide open! :-)))
Nice video! Gonna go viral
that is absolutely insane...
what gere are you in?
no onboards?
What speeds do they hit the jump at??
Awesome video .. You know how the saying goes you jump for show and corner for dough
you think a cr85rb could make this jump?
What gear are they in?
Question. Can you do this jump with stock suspension?
Yes
How the hell do you even gauge your speed to hit that jump
Tipsy Tortoise I guess you just pin it and work backwards. Casing that thing wouldn’t be pretty.
it that your asumption?
could you do that on a 250f with a shitload of preload
Add a shit load of testicles
so what gear on a 450 ya think? 4th?
what gear are they hitting this on the 250f?
Nice riding!
that full quad is a MONSTER! gah damn.
They had to add the small landing at the far side bc guys were over-jumping this and going huge to flat. You can tell if you look at the dirt color.
Didn't notice that -- good point!
What a kick ass MX track.
I just noticed his name is Axell, not Alex.
that jump is sick
holy shit, how much time does he save per lap doin that
what is it 4 or 5 hard
Which track is this?
At 3:28 that big bore 2-stroke , Yes !
Sure wish The Nationals were still at Pala!!!
wondering what's gonna happen if the bike stalls over there
How much throttle which gear on a stock 250f(yamaha)? Please, only the ones who have done this jump before on a 250f or ones who know for sure respond. Please, no spam.
en cuarta a fondo
How much throttle in fourth?
en alta revolucion
Full throttle? 3/4? In between both of them? Does this all include seat bouncing and lifting the front wheel up? No whip.
5th tapped
It should be on AMA motocross of 2013!!!
That's about the softest jump to case didn't you see some of them case it?
I hope I can get skilled like that one day 🔥🙏
did you say skilled or killed
Doesn't look like you can overshoot it in 4th pinnned so why not?
when the amateur track has bigger jumps than the pro track
Seriously... that had bigger jumps in the old days, don’t understand what’s going on
mad props to the kid on the 125!!
Sick! Wouldn't want too much of a breeze hitting that!
I saw a guy hit a bird on a jump once. Or maybe the bird flew into him, I don't know. He had feathers stuck to his helmet, it was hilarious. He stuck the landing though.
If you need to ask what gear to be in or how fast to go you probably should be hitting this
Yea, its technically a big jump..... but its a SAFE jump.

bill wilson it's not a double, it's 2 doubles :)
freeknet2000 so a quad...
Big jump..but is possible take out the hole and is more safe if one rder make short
I didn't see no one case what i'm talking about, i'm talking about landing on the face of the 3rd hump looks like 50mph to zero in 14" ..............I think you are talking about landing between the 4th and 5th hump.... if so I understand.
hi just wondering how stiff must be your forks or rear suspension set up to hit big air like these. please reply

epic. The guy on the kawasaki looked as if he was nose diving a bit, but had it under control.
tell me what is ?
Think he's talking about the honda 250. But mad props to the yz125 out there!
one things for sure, here in England people do not know how to build good fun jumps, I wish the tracks were more like that of the tracks in the US
Just happy to say I've done it. One of the easiest huge jumps you could do because it was perfectly set for 4th pinned for me. (450)
And then your fat ass woke up
That shit is dopeee man look like a bird in the sky good shit.wish we had a track close to me like that
What did you do today? Oh nothing just jumped 125+ft wot 4th gear that's all
They all just jumped farther that Evel ever did!
Dayum you jump high, never realized how far up in the air you reach :S
VEJAM SÓ O TAMANHA DA RAMPA DE LANÇAMENTO!!!! SHOU DE MAIS
AC goes there alot, i wonder if he clears it.
thats big on a 250.. ive jumped the tripple. But no way i could make it longer on 70 hour stock bike
I so badly want to try that, i find longer jumps easier. The more air time gives me longer to correct, but i feel like I wouldn't want to get into a situation where i have any correcting to do haha
He's talking about the 250f guy not the 125.
Kx 186. You must have me confused with someone else my last bike was 07 crf250. Bitch of a thing to start and yes it was brand new all the best mate
Must take a lot of time to grade the track surface perfectly smooth.
Looks like a fricken blast
All the BIG ones are, aren't they ?
HELL YES They Are !
That's one jump I would never want to see anyone case.
Balls of steel
I've seen a lot of dudes get hurt on this jump. But it's sick AF when someone hits it.
