Race Buggy Jumping

What was keeping him in the buggy for the first two jumps if there was no lap belt? Both hands were on the bar.

I was gonna say the same thing, but I would guess thigh pressure on the siderails, I loved the last one where he popped out of the buggy. Good landing! :yes:

Tornado buggy has similar rails to the XXracers that come over your legs, thats 60kg of buggy being jumped there. I saw one of the German boys, Malte Lutz, doing a aerial 360 with an XXracer op disc wheels....now thats crazy

Curved side rails

AST - only on the Xxtreme Apexx not the XXRacer.

Yeah Kiteboyza is right he's holding it up by forcing his legs out into the specially shaped siderails.

The guy is a boarder and that's the first time he's jumped a buggy. It was a bit of a misunderstanding, I'd been jumping off humps in the shingle and he thought I meant straight off a flat beach, he thought he would try and nailed it first time.
