Rich Pearson Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 Aparently one of the ones in Barnstaple that me and Steve Sanger have done is about 50"-51"Not really bothered, but if no-one's officially done it yet, my money is on Vincent or Danny Butler.Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manuel Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 Wayne's done a pretty big slap on a relatively short bike ....that bristol one = BIGIm probs at about 53 maxed out (but i dont run a barge (hehe)) which does me fine because at about 52 ish it becomes easier to just hook it... In the world though ? my money is on one of the custard bros - they have the best technique it would seem....anyone remember how easy it looked for one of them to tap the southbank (in the wet) and thats got to be like 55 ?

Barbara Logan-Price Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 if danny butler hit 59" EASY then surely he can do 60" relatively easily aswell... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Geary Posted September 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 59" Fook thats big, i looked at 52" and thought is that even possible and it looked like it was impossible but 59" fook.I can do 45" preety easy now but biggest I've done is 48" and that took a few good dam go's at it, 59" though I think Coust bro's have the best Tech ever, they have it so dialled.

chrishayton Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 i can see 60 inch would be quite possible if you had the balls. i think my highest is 52 but if i went faster and hit harder i could improve on that, i just dont dare.

Gaz M Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 am i right in thinking this tap was slanted? if so then its not really stupidly impressive. if its vert then it is lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biff... Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 am i right in thinking this tap was slanted? if so then its not really stupidly impressive. if its vert then it is lolagreed 59 vert tap must be bad for the wrist slanted aint as heard but i have seeen butler tap like 56" easy enough in blackpool before so it could well be vert.

ben_travis Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 if its that rock in that clip that tarty filmed then i dont believe that its totally vertical. yes its steep, but not vert and the top of the rock slopes back. if that rock was totally vertical he WOULDNT have made it.no offence danny, ur a good rider, but i need perfectly clear evidence of a vertical 59" tap to believe it.i thinkk thats only fair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarky Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 I can do 48" tire tap but have done 50" in past but it was a rounded edge on the wall, i think the coust bros can nail taps the best imo, I have seen butler do around 56" easy down in blackpool.
