    :? i seem to have a problem with taps???? :?
    on my raceline rhino i can tap 3ft, but when i come to objects as high as 3.3 or 3.2 i can't get the bike up. when taping something with hight does the bike have to leave the ground before the front wheel hit's the top? if so how do you learn this?
    Thanks
    Mickey

    you just hit at the same point pretty much... or if you do tap higher your bike is just a lot steeper and you have to react faster to pull it up all the way. taps are all about timing.

    you should still be on the ground (just) when you tap.
