Default BLASTER AND JUMPS

I was just wondering how the Blaster does with jumping?? Are the shocks nice and whats like the max height jump you could do? So for you Blaster riders out there let me know how you jump...

well the shocks aren't that great but for big jumps stiffin them right up and be ready for a jolt when you hit the ground a couple footers are no biggie (mine is on a pretty sof setting and it takes it not 2 bad) but if you get into mx and 20 footers then you might want new shocks its going to be better then a utility tho for jumping talk to blaster2fast he does mx on his blaster and he does the big jumps just says you got to get used to it

I feel better jumping the blaster than i do the raptor, even tho the raptors suspension is far superior. the Blaster is easier to move around in the air, for sure. the landings are nicer on the rap tho.
have fun! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

hey been a long time since ive been on the site.. so i dont know how old this site is but.. i will help ya out anyways haha... ive ridden both on the same track a blaster (mine) and a raptor (friends) i felt MUCH more comfortable and safe with my blaster than i did the raptor.. the landings.. were hard at first.. tighten the shocks and then its not tooo bad you just have to get a lil used to it.. give a lil bounce in your legs and it willbe fine.. the raptors shocks are very nice thoguh haha... but the blaster jumps pretty high and far compared to the raptor.. just get used to it i run my shocks .. rear all the way tight and fronts one notch down from tightest and i do some pretty big as$ jumps no problem. HAVE FUN!!!!!!!
