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
Not as scary as landing on your face.
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.

Jim Dechamp did the world's first front flip on a dirt bike during an airing of the MTV show "Nitro Circus". It is in the Guinness Book Of World Records as the first and longest front flip on a dirt bike.
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.
