Zoo_Monkey Posted November 24, 2005 Report Share Posted November 24, 2005 the most painfull was on my old kona shred - hit a double set of stairs 8+8 - jumped the first bit to land on the tranny of the second set - i got one of those not-quite-right takeoff moments and tensed up in the air, the run-up was on kind of an angle so i was trying to half hip it (no more than 20 degrees) meaning i landed way over tha back and at an angle, i bailed of the back of the bike and took almost the whole landing on one foot with my leg locked strait i went down the last 5 or so steps like a sack of sh!t roled got strait up on my feet, realised i had killed my foot (because it hurt like hell) stumbled went strait back down and smacked my sweed on concrete everybody was to buisy p!ssing themselved to help me (Y) my foot ended up blue / black for about a month but it was only bruised, my head was fine (thanks to my trusty tsg) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Oliver Posted November 24, 2005 Report Share Posted November 24, 2005 sam are you still doing moto-trials or just bike trials now. sorry it hasnt got nothing to do with the topic but i haven't had a good crash yet lol touch wood. Packed in Moto Trials for a while to compete on my monty. :P Makes sense really because i did not get enough time on my Sherco & are on my Monty all the time. Same teqnique apart from the pedal bit & clutch & throttle. PS going to Ogwen on Sat if we arn't snowed in, fancy some practice? :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Concussion Posted November 24, 2005 Report Share Posted November 24, 2005 Riding my BMX at speed along New Brighton sea front, bunny hops a 2 foot stone block. Caught my 60psi (solid) back wheel late, going over the block, flies over the handlebars and skids to a stop half a mile away :P I lost a lot of skin that day :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
