^ Believe it or not, I did all those jumps in 4th. They can be done in 3rd, but it would be in the powerband and I'm not used to jumping that way, plus I like to hit everything a gear high just in case I need to bring the front end down and I won't run out of rpm's to do it.
Alright Steve, I was thinking and here is a great way to explain about the throttle. Picture in track and field the long jump and the high jump. On the long jump they get to top speed and stay there until they leap. That gives maximum distance and little height. On the high jump they start slow and build speed until they leap. If you are in the process of accelerating hard on the face you will get maximum preload and the bike will "pogo stick" you higher. A constant throttle will keep the bike settled and predictable, as long as you're not going too fast. Hope this comparison helps you out.

Rob, that was awesome. I don't know anyone that hits the big jumps on a 3 wheeler like you do. Did you build all them jumps with the Mahindra or did you have a dozer?
Tabletop, rhythm and berm made with dozer, the mahindra did the rest
