  • Capes also broke the record for height (78') and distance over an open gap (348').
    As a distance jumper for over seven years, Capes has prepared his entire life for his latest stunt and he insists this new distance (390' 4") is just the beginning. After realizing that he had a passion and talent for long-distance jumping, Capes decided to dedicate his life to breaking distance records and leading the charge as the self-proclaimed "new-school pioneer" of distance jumping. Go deep!

      The set up is soooo much better than old school jumps. He has a bail out to the right, wind at his back, big wide landing area that is ABOVE the launch ramp (makes his actual drop from the peak of his jump less) and it's all dirt for softer landing... Oh, and the bike is waaay better for jumping as well. Still incredible, but yea, preparation is what made this possible.

      need more light every way imaginable 13 inches of travel not 30. He made motorcycles more popular and took the bad boy imagine away a little. But he was not very skilled. When you watch him ride you can tell he doesn’t quite care whether he lands it. I’ve cleared 90ft on a 78’ Suzuki gs1000 on a pavement step down, it’s not incredibly hard. And he had access to better bikes.

    • @hkjl5533

      need more light every way imaginable you’re completely wrong about everything you said. All of it is factually incorrect. It’s 13 inches of travel not 30. His xr750 did not weigh 1000 lbs.....more like 340, and a 450 mx bike weighs 240, not even close to quadruple, not even close to double the weight. Calculus existed for evel just as it does for us today, we all are using the same equations to build jumps. You don’t need to use a computer, it’s an formula, it can be done on paper. And last but not least... anyone, I mean anyone can launch a bike off a ramp for money and hope they don’t die.

      What Evil was doing with a bike with hardly any suspension is way more ballsy then what anyone has done since. That bike he jumped with did not have 13 inches of travel either. It was way less then that and 100 lbs more of weight makes a lot of difference. A dirt bike is way easier to jump with them the street bike Evil used

      Howabouthetruth In other words....Brent has respect for Evel Knievel for doing the things he did on what he did them on. If EK had a bike like the one Ryan Cates rode in this vid, who knows how many world record distance/number of vehicles jumped he would of set instead of the most broken bones..haha

      Evil packed the stadiums by himself he did not need red Bull or monster to make his show. It was a one man show all the way. The new bikes make the landing a whole lot more manageable. I don't care about your equipment the faster you wipe out the longer it takes to roll to a stop. Broken bones hurt. Leave Evil alone he was the grandfather of motor cycle jumping. He started from scratch.
