The difference is that the mountain bike tube is much burlier and wider than the dirt jump tube but may not be as strong in terms of hard hitting strength.
cruise until you get up to the jump and when you hit the very end of the jump gunn it
i do. 7235 vertical feet
not all are. if you want to do dirt jumping i recommend you do not use a normal mountain bike. get a proper dirt jump bike. i used a felt q520 xc bike to dirt jump and the forks broke and i took it in and the mechanic said i had damaged the frame and it was close to snapping.
Marzocchi bomber forks are used as a dirt jump shock but i ride DH on my dirt jump bike with those shock and can manage.
you will crash and heart your self and demige your bike
Homies is it easier to jump a dirt bike or four wheeler I was thinking four wheeler because of the weight but any help would be good thanks
I believe the first to land it was Evil Knevil.

Vital MTB is one website that provides dirt jump bike reviews. Dedicated community members and company agents will be more than happy to assist those looking for such reviews.
Depends on you, your bike, your speed and the size of the jump. Weak bike + heavy rider + big jump + high speed will add risk to it while strong bike + light rider + small jump + low speed will make it fairly safe. You will probably be somewhere in between these extremes so there's no way of telling how "safe" you will be.
First put the bike in neutral and push it as fast as you can. Next jump on the bike about half way down the hill' right after you jump on, pull in the clutch, shift into 1st or 2nd gear, let off the clutch, and give the bike a little gas.
