If you are talking about Allan Cooke's world record backflip, that was a different ramp. I havn't seen anyone do the new DC mega ramp that Danny set all his records on. Even if someone has it is still only half as big as what snowboarders and FMX guys do so "going big" is still all relative to what sport you are riding.

haha i agree with the snowboard thing..idk how many of you heard about mads johnson's 187 foot 360 on snowboard..but that is fucked up, considering the longest ive seen a dirt bike jump is like 200. As for scooters and shit, i think scooters will probably keep the basic design of a smaller sized deck and wheels, maybe end up with stems and stronger decks though, no folding shit and probably better headsets..maybe handbrakes

Jason sent me footage of it awhile ago, i think he just rode real high on the QP. Im sure Cary or someone could air it though.

eh, i think theres enough speed to air out at least a little bit...danny way clears the gap and has enough speed to air out 25 whatever feet. i think rolling down the landing and pushing like hell is enough speed for at least a foot..

1. The "ultimate design" already exists but 90% of you wouldn't be able to afford it right now.
2. Don't expect much change... the variety is already out there. Xootr is strictly transportation and Razor is freestyle... you can see the difference already when you compare them.
3. In general bikers go bigger than skaters but no biker has done the mega ramp... and none of them go bigger than snowboards so it is all relative. If you are so concerned with going big then go buy a dirtbike and a freestyle ramp.

Ive got the footage on my computer of the Mega Ramp on a scooter (where he goes up really high on the ramp) I think it would be inpossible as you just couldent really get the speed. (Unless you jump the whole thing and then you go up the Ramp)
