OUCH.

At least he split the uprights. Had he ran into one of those trees head on it might have turned out much worse than it did.

OUCH, that smarts!

Did anyone notice (at least before he left it) that the trail looked like a sandbox? I don't think I would have even enjoyed riding down that.

What are you talking about...That was a great dismount....a 360 forward flip with a 180 hip twist.... Yeah buddy needed to be further back on the bike and if anything when the bike was loosing it he should have bailed way before that..

Since you broke the ice on the laughing bit, I couldn't stop laughing as well. That poor bast@@d was holding on for dear life, for what reason I'm not sure.

The sounds the guy makes holding the camera are priceless as well.
Some funny funny stuff!!

Holy sh*t!! Where did you find my rookie season footage?

Ya'll have fun out there and ride hard, ride fast, huck a stump and have a blast :twisted:
