Hey i was just wondering if this happens to alot of people or its just me. I was hitting about a 30 footer at Glamis and the front end went way down. Is that just the way that Banshee's jump or is it just me? thanks

btw i haven't ever really jumped quads usually i just keep them in the sand

gotta stay on the throttle, if you back off, or dont have form any quad nose dives.

yea thats what i thought. it was my first time doing a jump with a gap (yea i know im a newbie). I think i let off at the top and i didn't pull back at all or preloard.

Yeah man, if you let off even the slightest bit it nose dives, I jump my shee in a high gear so it doesnt snap into powerband on me and I just flow up the jump with the throttle steady.

i tried to do that but it doesn't work out at the dunes. u go in low rpm's in the dunes and u bog down even up the slightest thing. it was just scary for my first time hittin a jump on a powerband that powerful
