Description
FMX rider set a record by jumping onto the world’s largest BelAZ dump truck
The new project of the Adrenalinerush ® brand has become a unique event for both Russian and the entire world of extreme sports. For the first time in the world, an FMX jump from a moving springboard to a moving landing was performed, installed in the back of the world’s largest BelAZ 75710 dump truck. An incredible trick was performed by one of the most famous Russian riders, a regular participant of the AdrenalineFMXRiders motorcycle freestyle show Vladimir Yarygin. Note that under normal conditions, FMX jumps are performed on static equipment. As part of the AdrenalineRush ® project, the athlete managed to set a record that was included in the Russian Book of Records. Vladimir Yarygin became the first rider to jump on his bike not just on the largest mining equipment, but, most importantly, from moving structures!
«The idea of the stunt seemed incredible, and from the very beginning I knew that I was going to face one of the most difficult challenges in my career,– Ryder shares his impressions. – It took several months of serious physical and psychological preparation. After all, just imagine what it means to jump from one dump truck to another as tall as a three-story house?! When there is almost 9 meters of emptiness under you, and your task is not to miss a landing that is moving, you involuntarily start thinking, have you managed to do everything in this life? The emotions of the fact that I managed to realize my plans cannot be expressed in words!It was a real AdrenalineRush!»
The jump from BelAZ to BelAZ was made at an altitude of 8.75 meters from the ground. Weather conditions added extreme and exclusivity to the stunt: since the action took place in winter, tires with spikes had to be installed on the bike. To date, there are only a few professionals in the world of motorcycle freestyle who «jump» on studded tires.
