RAMP TO DIRT RAMP MOTORCYCLE JUMPING WORLD RECORDS

RAMP TO DIRT RAMP. This category puts a ramp in place for the launch and uses a landing ramp made of dirt for the landing. This is measured just as a ramp to ramp jump would be measured, with ramp gap being primary, then total distance and then clear gap. Dirt is an entirely different medium than ramp structures and deserves its own category. Those who overjump a ramp to dirt ramp jump and land on flat ground will be listed as a flatlander.

    a. RAMP GAP. The most important ramp to ramp record is measured in ramp gap. The ramp gap is the measurement from the high end of the launch ramp, past the flat, approximately level dirt protective apron, to the highest and nearest point of the downward angled dirt landing ramp.
