lineaway Posted February 13, 2014 Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 Splatter! A Jap Zap or the new politically version zap is a well placed front wheel into a ledge or log. Which causes a full compression of the suspension along with precise timing of the clutch and body movement that gets a great amount of rear wheel lift to over come the obstacle. When done correctly it looks like the bike just magically elevates to the top of the ledge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
