Official SI over a bar, High jump record?

Just wondering what it is. I know I set a new NZ record but I didn't think twice about the possibilities of it actually being a world record.

So, 97cm, anyone gotten higher? (officialy)

I don't know of any official records that track where the seat is. I'll take some research, but you might be able to determine who had seats in or out in other official competitions (by digging up photos), and get their heights from that.

High Jump is jumping over a bar and riding away, in case you were thinking of something else.

Not sure... Don't think that anyone made that OFFICIALY!

But I know that Krisz jumps REALLY high, for sure more than one meter.... Don't know over the bar...

Maybe Max C., but he isn't a really good high jumper....

Anyway, congrats, that HIGH!

From my experience, sidehops SI can be just as high as SIF if the seat is low enough. But I'm far from being an experienced trials rider.

Maybe rolling hop vs sidehop comp?
