I want to know what kind of protective gears should a dirt bike rider wear..
Must the seat be low or high when doing the jumping kind of stunts?
What kind of attire should be worn for all that?
I'm a beginner in all that so please help me by giving me some tips..
Thank you.. :towelcheer: :blink: :wacko:

U meant Gambas dirt jump i suppose...join us tml for some street ride and we can share some tips

Beginners are advised best not to try anything too huge for a start.

Ride more till u are confident with small jumps, small air time, get landings correct & etc before trying bigger stuff

Protective gears, most importantly helmet. Protective gears such as shin & knee guards come next.

Ride with seat post lowered & get a right bike.

yes, like what Johnny sugguested, you should really familiarize yourself with your bike 1st.

before you proceed, you should try answering this few questions.

1) is your bike meant for DJ discipline?
2) how long have you been riding? formerly bmxer? xcer?
3) how & where did you learn about DJ discipline?

make sure ur bike is actually ment for dj..

ive seen xc bikes try to do dj..
it just dun't work lol

well...sometime it does works... :towelcheer:

i beg to difffer man.The xc bikes,even when the riders lower the seat it is still very high cause many of them didnt cut their post.And their handlebar is lower and its just not jumping geometry la their bike.I've seen many xcers try to jump but they would endo,besides clipless is a pain if u just wanna learn basic jumping.cant bail for shure.

and break ur collarbone in the process.. =)

just becareful. dont go too far.
first time i saw tampines my jaw dropped and i chionged the table top. and fell haha.
lucky no serious injuries. only wore a helmet tho.
just becareful and dont underestimate the jumps.

the jumps are pretty much sh*t now safer not to jump there lol haven been maintained in a long time...trust mi its not a good place to fall...if u wanna ride street u can pm me or hongyi to join the north riders

Anyone know what happened to the previous group that maintain the DJ area?
I remember seeing Gambas DJ featured on tv couple of years back.

well my cousin dun maintain it liao.. his frenz like all riding skateparks already..


so... i oso duno. :hehe:

last time i think got rc group handle them together wif riders volunteer now smlj also no hav liao lol

It's not the bike that really matters, it's the rider... unless we're talking about competitive riding. B)
