do some nice and stylish jumps on their ATVs. I'm not talking about looking somewhere else that where you're gonna land. I'm talking about serious style.
Let's say, Carey Hart did a backflip...hem..maybe that's a bit much for an ATV. I'll limit myself to NacNacs, CanCan, Supermen, Heart Attack...
Did someone do one of these without killing himself (if you're dead, don't reply, I won't follow your advices)?
I would try it if I had some nice jumping places, but around here, there are no dunes, no tabletops...just trail.

 

I did the superman/handstand type thing once on a 2000 Kodiak. And it sure the hell wasn't on purpose. Here's the scoop, one day I decided to see just how high/far I could jump with the Kodiak. I landed so damn hard that I came flying out of my seat (thought I was going over the handlebars). It must of looked like I was trying to do a superman or a handstand.

 

I have done the Heart Attack many times...and was trying to do something else...is that talent or what?

 

ahahahahaha!
I should have added on purpose!!

 

I don't have the guts to do really nasty stuff. My friend Josh was trying to do nac-nacs. He wasn't going high enough to get all the way to one side, so I got a picture of him doing a half-assed nac-nac. I called it a FTD. (resembles floral delivery service icon, I think...)
The pic is on my New pics page

 

Nice pictures Philzie.... I see why the new shocks were definately needed.

 

Jeeze try a 4ft high jump with a 200SX...LOL not a good thing for it. I usually do catwalks(20ft the furthest, but still trying to go further) wheelies and small jumps which are all easy.

 

Hmm, well, only thing I can do is ride 2 left or right wheels, wheelies, and some jumps (still in the learning process of that). Maybe once I learn how to jump big I can try some tricks, maybe.

 

No guts to do stunts (on purpose). I once did a 'grab a calf, peg the throttle, hope and pray momma doesn't catch you' I was so 'pumped' that I didnt even realize how close the mad mama cow got to me. My wife asked what was on my back. Seems it was cow snot/slobbers. Does that qualify as a 'heart attack'? I don't know how I would have outrun her with anything slower off the line than my Xplorer. Then again, I probably wouldn't have tried. For the record, the cow has been sold & likely chasing someone else around by now.

 

The best trick I can do is a nothing. I can do a toped out 5th gear one handed x-up wheelie on my 300ex. MY nothing's aren't anything special I am still trying to get the full extension of my arms and legs.
