    40 foot gap on a Trike? Easy as pie!

    Well, I finally did it. A 40 foot gap on my Z. Talk about scaring the crap right outa ya when your first doing it. No problems whatso ever

    My dad was doing the filming and had my hospital card on him jk
    I think ill show ya up billy!
    Well heres the video, pretty self explanatory. 20 and 30 foot tables, then the 40. Now for the TF MX to get some bigger and better air.

    Whos says trikes dont own?


    And FYI- if you see a kid on a 400ex in the background, he couldnt clear one of them and hes been riding for awhile!

    Lookin good Josh.

    Problem with the track at TF is maintaining speed in the turns to have enough speed to hit the jumps without casing.

    Keep practicing. I sure know I could use some. I'm gonna get passed by TimJr this year.

    Cool video Kintore. But I did see in the video the steering stem nut is missing on the 3wheeler your dad was on. Running without this nut can cause your forks to break while riding. I have seen this happen before and the kid did get hurt. Just wanted to point it out because I don't like my friends getting hurt.

    Lol ill race with ya after I lap ya! Just kidding todd lol

    Thanks for the comments, Im going to go back and take pics of the track and the 40 and perfectly measure it out. I think its a tad shy of the 40 to be honest. Then Ill come back and host em!

    Yah I know, only one cure for that, FASTER!

    Any more comments?

    The more I think about it, I think its like a 35 or less gap. I think the owner is thinking about where he takes of to where he lands, not jump to jump. Im going back there to measure it out.
