Geeeezzz... hard to soak up any of that face when you are bottomed out 3 inches past bottom. That had to have hurt even before the crash.

I cannot really see what it is he did. Do we think he overjumped into the next face? Weird incident

Why are the jumps so tight together and so short?

The bike seems like it can barely sit between the landing on and the face without wheels touching.

Seriously, I don't know if we need jumps that big. That looked insane. Maybe just the view?

People think they are big? The front tire already rolling off the lip before the back tire even hits the take off.

Im not sure its a design problem. More a "creative line" problem.

Well, since 450s can jump so fucking far, he slightly over timed it, went long, right into a face, lost momentum, short into the next triple.

We don't need 450s in SX. Ridiculous.

I think it's the capability to do crazy stuff on today's bikes. Doesn't mean you have to… sure, but if you don't then someone else still will.

Who's fault could this possibly be besides the rider? Blink

Big can be what the obstacle allows.

Shallow ramps and 450s equals long ass jumps. Mis-time that, and you're going really fast into something else.

Back in the day, shit was short and peaky. I think i'd rather case something at 25 feet than 55!

I think they're gonna need a bigger hammer.

The neck whip really caught my attention. I hope there's no lingering damage from that one.

Bike wasn't even breathing - these 450's are way too much for these stadiums

There was mention of track design, too small landing area, rider error. Whatever, I was saying thats what it looked like to me.

That's (the neck whip) was the first thing that made me cringe. You're right. It might not hurt now...but...I hope he's ok a week or month from now.

That was rough. I totally agree that 450s in SX are stupid. Way too much juice.

Yep.

And to think there are about 20 plus guys out there trying to ride without them that have a motor capable of the same fuck-up.
