i finnaly got my new ramp= emergency room

[kxrider]

i made a new freestyle ramp for my kx it is only like 4 ft tall its a mini super kicker, well i finished it yesterday and i jumped it, first jump i nose dived pretty bad, so i went and i corrected it and landed perfect well on my 3rd jump i hit it, and i got big air about 10ft high, one problem i was flyin with the front end way to low so i panic reved and that didnt help any i hit the ground flipped over the bike landed on top of me, and i had to be rushed to emergecy room for x rays on my leg, hand, shoulder, but my shoulder is ok, hand is proly broken, and leg is just pulled muscles, one good part about all of this is my little brother got it all on video :D

[derekhonda]

lets see the video :) :) :)

[kxrider]

how do i put it on here if it is on a regular video not digital

[Instinctz]

Ouchy, I think I am goin to try and build a ramp of some sort, but I dont think I want a big one, just a small one to start with. I might eventualy try and build a mx style track.

I'm goin to make a new post to ask a few more questions now that you .. sorta inspired me. (not to goto the ER though :D )

[Ryan]

Well that sucks. Be more carfull next time. And like derek said "Lets see that video." I don't know how people put videos on the computer though :huh . I think you hook up the adaptors from the video camera to the back of the tower but thats what I think. Good luck with the hand and leg.

DUDE! Get it on the computer and send it to the web master!

Cool, kinda. Hope your alright. You can put it on computer, if you buy a Card for your computer that has a video IN slot. ATI makes them... sorry I cant find a link, Striker might know one.. Sorry

[Sparks425Ex]

I wanna see this. Sounds like it was pretty sick.

[Sportrax10]

Thats cool, maybe you should get some shocks to go with the new jump. Just so you dont kill yourself!:o lol

[kxrider]

so how much does that cards for the computer run, do they work if its not a digital camera

[Rip_Tear]

Ya its for regular TV/Video stuff. Its not very expensive, prolly $40... Not sure though I cant find one.

[BlazingYamahaYz]

that sux man....know when ur going to get back to ridding? Ben-whats going on with the video camera? ben bought some video camera adapter this summer...then the stupid camera started eating the tape:grr u just have to buy an adapter that will fit ur camera and the software(should be with it)....i plan on building some 4-5 foot jumps this summer....

[DGR Designs]

so? did it hurt? (j/k name under avatar)

[tants]

glad ur a ok

[Ballistic Atv]

ahhh man, i am glad ur ok.
i hope u have a speedy recovery, so u can go back and try that jump again.
But be careful next time, u dont want that to happen again.

heal up bud,..
but ,..in the mean time ,
could i borrow the ramp??? :)

well...the problem is u built ramp thats wayyyy too small, that ramp would be good for a xr 50 not a kx 125

[kxrider]

i was talkin to my dad about wat i can do to correct my next jump off the ramp, ,and he says i have to burn it or get rid of it so anyone who wants to come get it, ,just pm me:(

[BlazingYamahaYz]

so its a wooden ramp...i thought that it was a dirt one...my ramps are all made outta dirt...my parents are really cool about me ridding...my dad had a few bikes when he was a kid/teenager....they told me to go easy on the front yard(dont tear it up) and the backyard is all mine...i have about 5 jumps back there, and did have some whoops, but i took 'em down...more jumps are coming this summer since we cleared some more trees from my woods....

ramps= wood or steel
jumps =dirt

[BlazingYamahaYz]

ok now i get it....i have jumps in my backyard....i never really tried making ramps outta wood....

[2fastandfurious]

Ya luke when it warms up my dad is renting the Bob cat excavater again and we can load the f-150 up and make a big pile and then work from there. If we just make a big pile we can mold it or move it around a little bit at a time.
-Ben
I dont wanna go with wood or metal!

[BlazingYamahaYz]

aight lemme know when he is going to.....we need to clear the woods of leaves and small twigs...maybe the stumps too...figure out where we're going to take the dirt from....

[2fastandfurious]

Big accident going on it BK. We might get called out off duty. Front end collision, code, heavy extrication, 2 air angles in route.
-Ben
Look in the paper

[BlazingYamahaYz]

why dont u get on aol ben? anyways, anyone heard from kxrider? when do u think that u will be back ridding?

[kxrider]

just heard from doc today, no broken bones, just torn muscle in shoulder, jammed thumb, and some piched nerves in my leg, it feels weird i have like a 2 in wide 6 in long numb spot on my leg, but he siad it will heal in a few weeks just stay off of it, guess thats better than broken bones

[motochris]

Well hope you feel better.... What is the length of your ramp??? If your ramp is to short you will have problems... Trust me i know....hahaha.........:D Hope you feel better.............

[kxrider]

, the ramp is 3ft tall and a lil over 6ft long, i think it looks good but everyone else says it is way to steep :D , and i dont kow if when ur ridin at it about to jump it it looks like your gion to hit a wall, i think it is supposed to be like that or thats how the pros look

[motochris]

Well you need to add a little to that ramp... the small ramp i have is 3 foot tall and 9 feet in length... When the ramp is to short it will compress the suspension and cause the rear of your bike to kick hard and throw you into an endow... Also check your angle to the lip of your jump and make sure its not to steep...

So when you going to build the 15 foot high ramp???...... Just kidding bro..........:p

[kxrider]

dude actuly righ now as we speak im drawin up plans for my new real ramp, 8.5ft tall 21ft long it looks sweet im goin to build a scale model to check out the angle

[flying400ex]

Sounds like your lip on your jump was to steep.

[kxrider]

if you want to get the movie on here, you can buy a Dazzle digital video creator like i did. It was about 60 bucks and plugs into the usb port. You just hook it up to your puter and camera and you send it. Its not too terribly hard. Plus you can edit and make special effects to. www.dazzle.com
