 ok, you see he is to slow waay before he hit the jump, why didnt you tell him to stop and get the speed up before hitting it ?

 Cant really hear much when your heading towards the jump at speed. I usually do quite a bit of dirt jumping but nothing this size, its very difficult to judge length when your coming up to it. A 30, 40 or 50 foot gap can look all the same coming up to it, until you are in the air and realize you haven't put enough cranks in.

 It's really 50 ft but you have to jump the step down to got enough speed. Nice attempt by the way.

 Fair play for hanging on to the bike that long, I would've bailed off that soon as I realised I wasn't going fast enough haha.. or not tried it in the first place.. Props for hitting it!
