The "quad" that James was doing at Oakland was a single, over a table, and landed on the backside of a single. 3 jumps
Now we have this "quad" at the SD track tonight. the takeoff is a table, then over a single and landing on the back of another single. 3 jumps.
So when we have a finish line that is a single over a tabletop that is now a "finish line triple?"
i swear they are making this stuff up so it sounds more dangerous.

The Shop
Top of Table =1
Backside of table =2
backside of next single =3
+ takeoff = quad
best possible explanation i've heard yet
But for as long as SX has been around there have been finish line jumps that are a single over a tabletop. Iv'e never heard of that jump combo as a triple. I consider that a double.
Check out tonight's heat races... WTF!
You DON'T Add the landing ramps together.......you ADD THE TAKE OFF's! 3 take off's.......= a triple. Doesn't matter if one is bigger than the others. Never has in the 35 yrs I've been doing this sport!
Pit Row
Imagine if they filled in one of those little gaps...........they would be saying the guys were clearing 5! That is the exact same reasoning as what they are using now....and it makes no sense!
It NEEDS a name damn it!
