Speaking of runaways....did anyone see the guy attempt the doublebackflip last night? He slammed the landing and his throttle goes WFO and the safety guys just pull in the clutch and let that engine wail for a good 10-15 seconds. The riders buddy had to come flying in to kill the engine, but, too late, he fried the engine and is out of the games. Poor guy is unsponsored and drove 2200 miles to the games in LA. That's gonna be a long drive home..one jump and out.

Hopefully some people will donate time/parts/money to help get him back running. I've seen it happen before in drag racing and circle track racing.

Best trick comp was cool, Kyle did a full 360 off his bike and landed it I watched it for like 20 min and it still amazed me that he could pull it off. I trick and he won the whole thing with a 94.2 no one even really came close to him as far as a score. And that did really suck about the dbl back flip one one person has pulled it off in a compition so far now he's running for subaru in the rally kind of funny how someone does something so great like that and decides to move on to something else.


If a friend gets you a beer from the bar, is it acceptable for the friend to stick his finger in the opening to bring back several beers to the table at once?

He sorta walked away! He came real close to being dead, the way his head banged back..that was the worst fall I have ever seen on skateboard ramps.

i think the only reason the guy didint ride for the second run is cause he was hurt. If he really wanted to do the second run he would have borrowed another bike. The announcer said he could do it since theres 7 bikes not being used.

All of those guys are nuckin futs! No way I'm letting go of a perfectly good motorcycle in midair unless I have to!

I give them props for having the stones to do the crazy stunts they throw.

That was sick when he went he did the 720 over the gap, also it was more like a 50 ft drop.

I thought he was going to win it with his frist run, but then BB won it in his last drop in.




Today is the moto-x step-up, and the BMX bikes on the monster ramp.

T.P. is and always will be the best there ever was in my book. When he was younger I thought he would be a great motocrosser but he was too busy "messing around" instead of pulling consistent laps. All those crashes from the many years of crazy jumps can and did take there toll on him and now the guy can barely walk so I can see why hes in a car now. And also hes not half bad behind the wheel either.
