what do u do before you hit a jump, like what is preload and to use it

 

right before u go of the jump take ur weight of the quad then push down hard. Its kind of a bouncing action and will shoot u higher. The preload is in ur shock i think that it is the spring tension.

 

it would really help if u are fat. lol. what could i say. its 1 30 in the morning and im getting a bit tired. ill leave now.

 

I just Have the revs up nice, and just befor iget to the top of the lips i give it anuther shot, and That just kindda gives me a nice POP
Haveing your revs higher is teh key tho!
If your hitting a jump in 4th at low revs, Try hitting it in 3rd HIGHR revs

 

Dont give it to much of a shot when you get to the top or you will do a nose dive, though just a little extra.

 

How do you figure that? The extra shot coming off the ramp actually lifts your front end up, thus preventing a nose dive. The only times I've nose dived is if I was doing what a previous fellow said .. approaching the ramp in 4th at low revs, and then the punch isn't enough to keep the nose up off the ramp ..

 

WOW?....

It works the opposite way there buddy. Clearly you're not the best jumper.

You approach the jump slower if anything and then give it more throttle as you're going up the face of the jump right up until the lip and you will jump it nicely.

If you give it too much throttle as you're approaching the jump but then let off the gas as soon as you start going up the face of the jump and just coast off it then you WILL noise dive.

take this into consideration when jumping. if the quad is in the air and mooving more tire rotation will keep the front end up. if u let off the gas(while in the air) u will nose dive. and u do what to be giving it gas as u come off the tip.

 

lol sorry read the post wrong.

 

The one thing i've learned is never let off the gas right as you launch. haha
kind of a no brainer i know but when i was learning to jump i would chicken right before the lauch and then the rear end wouldn't have the load from the motor and the rear shock would spring back up sending your rear nice and high through the jump. Nothing sucks more then flying through the air with your tail a lot higher then your nose.

With the Raptor i like to keep the revs right in the middle then right as i'm launching goose it a little to really get a good launch.
