ok i gotta ask....

how do you get the bike back out ???

i've always wondered what happens after u hit the water...:???:

[g1mpy]

see there is a life jacket attached to the bike... it just floats back up:)

[Mr. Charles]

i have never done that.... at som point i will.


anyone ever get hurt? seems like you could bust yer teeth or nuts (badly) on the bike.

[KnuckleBone]

it hurts when you land on your back or face other than that is pretty hard to get hurt

to get the bike in you have to grab it and swim in with it. kinda of a pain but well worth it.

that is awsome. I want to do a river jump.

me and my friend on keats islnad jumpeed off the keats dock. no backflips of though. It was about a 15 foot drop into the water. pretty :thepimp:

I'm doing that this summer up at my friend's own section of his lake down in B.C. Can't wait!

Cheers.

river jumping / lake jumping is fun.

lifejackets have no trouble bringing the bike back to the surface, considering even a child's lifejacket is made to hold more than even the heaviest downhill bike.

putting lots of air in the tires is probably easiest to do

Lake/ River jumping owns. The bike i used the tires just held the bike up and it definetly doesn't hurt landing ont eh bike usually. I was busting out some one hand table tops and such landing ont he bike and it didnt hurt at all.
