I remember seeing an edit of Alex Nelson, and it was not the biggest gap ever, but he disastered a qaud kink to the second down, and did a misty 4 out.

not necessarily a disaster but at least a huge gap to rail at 1.00:

That's nuts. The sketchiest thing with that isn't the distance but the takeoff. That jump was meant to get onto the first rail, not fly even 5 feet really. You hit a jump going 8 million times the intended speed, it can buck you. Look at the wiggle in the air trying to stay right side up.

Fucking gnarly, still landed clean. That's some balls.

If Waterville still has it, a 50ft. quad kink (or 5 kink I guess depending on how its set up) during the first Junkyard Jam which was in 2004. I haven't seen anyone go bigger on a regular rail set up but then again I am the best so no need to pay attention to anyone else.

This guy from the 2007 Candide Invitational was pretty ridiculous



There's a bunch of shots throughout the clip, but 3:25 is a good one:

This is pretty fuckin massive, especially adding the fact that Candide did a Cork 8 on

Poor Boyz did a shoot/contest(?) back in 08. Wanna say it was Jib Jam. Mostly remember a young John Spriggs laying down a Rodeo 450 on to some huge flat down. Have to search for a video.

I spent an hour looking for this shot this morning thinking it was JP.
That first angle is so nuts.
