Great picture! I've done it several times when I had my 02 raptor 660 until my front right wheel dipped down and I went over the bars. Luckily? it was at the end of the pond. We both went rolling several times, me ahead of the raptor, and it landed on me. It hurt. I don't do it anymore! LOL! I wish I had pics, though. There's a lot of stupid stuff my son and I have done that I wish I had video or atleast pics of so I can laugh. Not going to do any of it again....guess I'm getting old!

 

thats nuts man cool though

 

they say after i think 50mph that hitting water is the same as concrete!!!! GREAT pic

 

It's not really that hard, you just act like you'er goin over whoops, just lean back and lay on it!! I learn from my own mistakes ALOT[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img].

 

I am definitely going to try this as soon as I get a faster quad. I race dirt bikes and I think it would be a little harder to do it on a dirt bike and my LT 125 doesn't have a chance,
but I know a guy that's going to sell me a bad *** YFZ 450 with all the bells and whistles made for quad war racing for only 2500 bucks and a fresh motor.

 

Ive dont that @ silver lake several times on my trx250R.
did swamp it once, didnt hurt the motor thankfully, just had to get towed back drain the oil & pull te plug & was all good.

I have seen a few people do it on dirtbikes and quads at silver lake, but the water was only about 3' deep...but still plenty to throw you over the handle bars and flood your machine out. I dont think that is something I will ever try, but I like watching other go for it..lol!</end quote></div>

 

 

Here's Richard hammond explaining it, with a demonstration by a jeep and a snowmobile.

 

That was pretty cool

 

Nice I dont think I could try it over a big deep pond like that, the thought of my quad going under has me but do you think its possible on a big puddle?
