Calculate and visualize jump angle and velocities
Freestyle Calculator
ANGLE: 48 °
HEIGHT: 3.00 m
GAP: 8.00 m
Velocity
The required speed of the bike at the moment of takeoff in order to clear the gap.
Air Time
The time spent in the air during the jump.
Angle
The angle of the ramp, measured in degrees, at the moment of takeoff.
Height
The vertical distance from the base to the top of the ramp.
Gap
The distance of the jump from the takeoff point to the landing point, assuming equal heights.
- It's All on You
Jump at your own risk. There's no warranty on air time. You're responsible for your build, your riding, and whatever may or may not break (including bones).
- Same Height In, Same Height Out
The calculator assumes you're launching and landing at the same height. If your landing's lower or higher than your takeoff, your jump distance is gonna change. Higher landings = shorter gap. Lower landings = longer gap. Want it to feel smoother? Elevate your landing a bit.
- Suspension? Yep, You've Got It
Your suspension will affect things - especially the takeoff angle. That changes your trajectory and flight time. Rebound, preload, and even rider position can mess with your numbers. Expect to tune and tweak.
- What's “Jump Angle”?
That's the angle of the bike the moment your back wheel leaves the ramp. Usually close to the angle between your wheels when your front tire is just hitting the lip. Keep it clean, smooth, and don't be surprised if it shifts depending on your ramp shape, speed, and body movement.
- Ramp Shape Matters
Is your kicker mellow? Steep? Curved? Straight? The shape affects launch angle and speed. A well-designed transition helps carry momentum. A janky one? That'll kill your vibe and your distance.
