[QUOTE="bbbom, post: 164347, member: 16301"] Okay, no it's not ME, it's my son. Just turned 9, 4'8" tall, 85 lbs not a small boy. Has been riding since he was 4.5 on the trails. Started SX last year on his KX60. Now racing in 60 beginners on the KX and in 80 beginners on his 01CR80E with 2" smaller rims. He loves air but has NOT attempted a double. This is an ugly double to me (but so are some whoops). It is actually a triple about 85' long. The takeoff is about 6-7 feet tall and from crest 1 to crest 2 is about 40'. I have watched some pretty good riders crash HARD! He wants to do the double but he only gets on a track 1 to 2 times a month for either a race or an organized practice. I don't know, should I let him or make him wait until he can practice with a friend's son that does very well in the 80's and 125's? Is a double THAT hard to do on an 80 or am I just being too cautious? If I let him do it, what advice should I give him besides to commit one way or the other? [/QUOTE]
