BMX Starting Gate

The Revolutionary TripGatesm

The Trip Gate BMX Starting Gate is a revolutionary new starting gate designed to allow you to practice on your own and to improve your gate starts. Practice by yourself or with a friend. Improve your snap with the patent pending, trip mechanism.

It's not often that we personally endorse a product, so when we do you know it is something unique and it works superbly. Having raced bmx for longer than I'd like to admit, one thing that I learned early was that the key to racing was gate starts. It's not that the start is everything, but on most tracks if you can get the holeshot you have a good chance of winning. So, anything that can help you with gate starts is to your advantage.

Over the last several years, the top riders have used a rollback, slingshot style starting technique. In the early days many considered this to be jumping the gate, but today it is common practice. If you watch the top experts and certainly the pros, their wheels rollback several inches before they snap out of the gate. This is where the TripGatesm comes into play. The TripGatesm (patent pending), designed by Dan Triplett, uses a trip mechanism to help you improve your starts. The gate is adjustable to fit your bike (20, 24, 26") and is easy to use. After just a few starts you will see an improvement in your snap and power.
