damn, that is the farthest bail I have ever seen on vert, aside from Mat Hoffman bailing on the 25ft super quarter. Can’t believe he was relatively OK

His trucks were too loose to handle that kind of speed. You can see that in the first 15 seconds. Glad he’s okay though.

I’ve fallen on 8 foot halfs before, I would’ve shit my pants being all the way up there

I watched it also last night and thought he was going to be fubar.

Did anyone see that Murray guy try the double backflip on the motocross bike? He almost got it, but instead slammed his front tire into the dirt and got all messed up.

He deserved first just for trying it and coming so close to doing it. He’d have done it if it wasn’t the pressure of it being his first time there.

I wish he could have tried it again in the 2nd round.
