The buggy's shown look like a Flexi buggy (in the rear) and a PL (in the front). You can jump with any buggy but be ready to replace a few rear axles
and maybe some frame rails. They aren't really designed for that kind of riding and when you land it puts a lot of stress on them.

Awindofchange if You are talking about my posted pic then You're all wrong.I'm on front in custom for jumping flexifoil buggy and behind me is Elton
in standard flexifoil buggy.On first pic from NZ it look like guy jump in PL with suspention.As I mention before I would not recomend PL buggy for
jumping,however it is also very good buggy for freestyle and such...
Cheers.

Can you get suspension back axles and headsets sold separate? I've never seen them, only the springs.
Zloty, try selling it, looks like it's taken by a pro.
stock xchange lets you sell your photos, you have to be approved though. Dono if it's any good but i do know that's where everyone goes for photos
