Landing
- Term
which describes the wooden, metal, or dirt slope which the rider
comes in contact with as a direct result of gravity bringing the bike
and rider down to the earth. The purpose of a landing is to
soak up the force of the motorcycle and rider as they contact the
earth. The steeper the landing ramp, the softer the landing. A
steeper landing is also harder to land on, as it represents a smaller
targer to the bike and rider.
