Highest static S.I.F. sidehop - no prehops.
What's the highest you've got onto a ledge? And highest you've seen any of your friends get? Metric and imperial if you're a nice person
 The reason I'm posting this is I'm not sure if it's worth my while to learn prehops at all... is it possible to get a metre without a prehop?Try stay on topic... SIF - STATIC - NO PREHOPS Mine - 73cm (28.7 inches) - unicyclistjoe - 75cm (29.5 inches) <-- likely to be NZs best yet!

32" (81.28cm)
I am new to trials though, not having figured out the timing on prehops, I do everything static.

I think I've hit a ledge that was around 33 inches (83.8cm)...I don't think I've gone much over that static.

Static just means not rolling, correct? Aren't they all static, prehop or not? I'm no good at timing prehops either. I can use them for pedal grabs but sidehop to rubber I usually just do it no prehop. Or rolling seat in. I haven't measured my highest, nor have I tried to go higher sidehoping.

That's what I always thought, too, but apparently THESE guys don't count prehops as being static.
Weirdos. Anyhoo, I suck at SIF hopping, my best being like 22". |

it makes sense to me. a static sidhop is jumping from a stillstand. The prehop adds lateral motement.
