What do the terms cutout and whoop refer to with respect to motocross? |
I would love a glossary of dirt bike/motocross terms --I've never heard of "cutout", but this is what "woop" means. --Woop, most commonly called "woop-d-do's" or "woops". --A series of evenly spaced bumps. The series can be from 3 bumps-up to forever. --The bumps are about 2ft high and the peaks of the bumps can be spaced about 3 ft apart. --A slow rider will roll over them (up-down-up-down-up-down) with both wheels on the ground. A fast rider will just touch the very peak of each woop with just the rear wheel. Flying over the whoops just like a street bike rolling over cracks in the road. whoops are the bumps A cutout can refer to an actual large divot out of the ground where a rider can very slowly roll through it, but likley even a novice can easily jump it. It was a level or slightly decending jump to cross. Kind of an easy double jump. At some mx tracks here in Tx, they were popular around 1995-1998, but then most tracks reverted back to the typical do or die double and triple jumps-these are usually as steep as whoops, yet much taller. Now the local DFW-Tx tracks are as hairy as they were in the late 80s. Try MXA mag.com for explanation of mx terms-and remember if you do not turn pro, it is better to race mx pretty fast for a long time than really fast for a short time. If it is a hobby , then you will always want to do it-save your body for the long haul. |
