540/450

Me landing a 540 for the first time, on a Karpiel too! If you've seen the jump in person, you would know this is a 540, if you feel like whining, don't post. Thank you! The true ammount of spining I did, which we figured out on my last trip to utah as about 500 degrees. The angle of the camera, jump and landing makes it look weird.

Obviously him because he has obviously 540ed and 450ed a downhill rig enough to obviously be an expert at this...obviously. Jk man, props for getting a big bike spinning like that.

Who cares 540, 360, 450. The kid is 14 and I promise none of us were doing that on a 40 pound rig @ 14. Props to the young one!!! Keep up the good work!

yeh good job man! i broke my wrist trying a 360 on my demo 9 in the summer. big bikes just dont spin like a bmx LOL!.a big jump like that helps alot too!

aaronlampman (Nov 30, 2008 at 11:38)

dang thats so sick. I wanna try a 360 but i dont have any good jumps or step-ups

chochocho (Nov 30, 2008 at 12:05)

i wanna try that too..but i dont have the cajones..lol

crowe (Jun 20, 2009 at 8:53)

dude, if you want to try something but don't have a proper jump....build it!!! and as far as having the cajones...if you get the proper protective equipment there's alot less chance of getting hurt, therefore you don't need huge cajones.

yea that comment is pretty old..my friend and i are currently building a drop at the trails right now..

aaronlampman (Jun 21, 2009 at 0:18)

i actually did go and build a nice jump to try it on but i cant land it.

JLNowhere (Dec 1, 2008 at 18:16)

you're a moron. if it was a 540 you would have landed backward facing the lip. thats not even a 450

suicidedownhiller (Dec 1, 2008 at 18:40)

I did land backwards facing the lip dipshit

nouser (Dec 2, 2008 at 19:18)

Why are you raggin on him bobby? Can you do shit like this on a full on DH bike? The only time i've ever seen a DH bike spun like this was Chris Kovarik's 360 over the 15 foot table...

kylemorris (Dec 1, 2008 at 19:05)

is it true that when you are doing 540s and 360s the bigger you go the more likely you will land clean?

suicidedownhiller (Dec 1, 2008 at 19:30)

If you know what you are doing yes, to an extent. It is easier to stop the rotation if you go bigger, but I recomend learning the technique first, cause its really hard to learn, once you get the spinning part down, try it on a bigger jump, without a gap. But yes, it is true, to an extent
