Robbie Maddison broke the world motorcycle jumping record Monday, Dec. 31, 2007, soaring 322 feet, 7 1/2 inches at the Rio All-Suite Casino and Hotel in Las Vegas.

Facing a slight headwind, the freestyle star from Australia made a second jump, but went only 320 feet on that attempt. Maddison broke the Guinness World Records-certified mark of 277-6 set by Trigger Gumm in 2005 in Australia, and the non-certified mark of 310-4 set by Ryan Capes in Kent, Wash., also in 2005.

During practice Sunday night, Maddison jumped 350 feet. It was unclear if that jump would be certified as the record.
