15 year old ripper jumps 20meters

Postby Bigaaairs » Sat Dec 09, 2017 5:25 pm

Hi Dudes and ripping girls..

This 15 year old Dutchie is jumping 20-23 meters on a regular basis. Flipping INSANE :thumb:

He just missed the top spot to another Dutchie at 24 meter for the core XR5 challenge and win a direct ticket to Capetown but now he still has an option to win a ticket to Capetown to try to beat Joshua's new world record. He needs our help for this!

If you like his jumps please help him and drop a vote on his/the 22.4m picture! It is a 5 sec thing! https://poll.fbapp.io/xr5challenge-wild-card/ITNdckBm He can use the clicks and more than deserves the spot in the plane!!

Best big air greets!

Young talent, and he jumps the highest of all contestants on that page anyway.

He may be young but he needs to know what is what.

55-60 knots? no.

Megaloop @ 5m? no.

Not sure wether this movie is from that day, but I have seen him kite in a storm that hit the 55kn gusts for sure.

@eckhardt, I was in the same storm, sickest thing ive had on the water. @tone you're (partially) right. The wind that day was a nice 31-38 knots and when the raincloud came over it definitely hit 50 knots. I was on my 9 having an awsm sesh till the raincload came. Then fully depowered, having my kite 1m above the water and waiting it out. I saw people on 6's pulling safeties and 6-7 kites in distress, (and one kite exploding haha). He had the balls on his 8 to send it one time (crashed ans bounced massively, and jumped 22 meters then) I just found the pic on my phone again.

The shot was not in the raincloud so you're right and for the mega loop I agree. Especially since he does loop it at 15+ but it's just a name at YouTube :))Just give him a vote tone haha!

Yeah, the Dutch appear to be breeding an army of really hot Flying Loopers! They got the conditions for it! Such sweet boys too! Just a joy!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hi Tone, the video with the caption 55 knots was the day the red bull megaloop challenge was, so it truly was 55+ knots ;).

I’m not sure what my highest loop was but definitely above 5 meters.

Also thanks a lot for you’re vote! Really appreciate that.

Maarten

Haha yes, but also annoying to see :lol: Little guys that are 12 and looping at both sides forward. Makes you (me) feel old and a loser! :D
