That is really cool but I would guess the pro's were going much faster making it harder to drop in and jump out.

I do think these kids on 85's are amazing.

Several of the pro's did it in practice and qualifiers, watch Malcolm in the qualifiers. As the night wore on the face got to rutted up among other things to do it safely. That many guys pounding the track at the speed they were going takes a big toll on the track.

Not to say what the kid was doing isn't damn hard.

It was kind of a joke . This kid is very impressive and what he was doing was amazing but I meant it as more of a joke than anything.

That kid was on it! Not scared. You'd have to think they knocked the wall down at least a little bit though.

They knocked it down a lot. Its not nearly as high or as steep.

But still impressive.
