Accessible Rampage Feature Claims Another Victim

It's best to overshoot stuff like this

Canyon gaps are no joke. In an era where machine built tabletop jumps reign supreme these mega gaps are the true equalizer in terms of commitment. 

One of the more prevalent and accessible canyon gaps has been making some waves online as people have been lining up to get a taste of the Rampage glory. While most have succeeded, unfortunately some have failed. 

Take a look at one of those less fortuitous attempts below.

Ryan Kieth, the Bozeman based rider in the clip should be commended for giving that gap an honest pull. It looks like he was just a touch slow and a little off on the timing of that pop. 

All in all, though, this could've ended up a lot worse and it really goes to show how narrow of a margin for error there is on features like that. Popping half a second too early can mean the difference between a great day and a very bad one. 

We're glad to see that this was basically a best-worst case scenario. Of all the ways to blow up on this gap, that had to be the most favorable option.
