I spent Saturday in the park watching Rob, Chase, Hope, Nick and Sarah-Beth attempt their stunts as they get ready for the Mexico trip.
Even though no animals were harmed in the making of this video, everybody else was… as you will see. (4.57 meg)
The worst crash was Nick’s face plant into the ground. You notice he didn’t get up right away. That one scared me but he managed to shake it off after he regained consciousness… and got his breath back. He says he doesn’t remember the crash… which makes Nick the poster boy for wearing protective gear… like a helmet.
The next really good crash is Sarah-Beth flying off of her Dirtsurfer and smacking her ribs into the landing ramp. OUCH! She got up but had the wind knocked out of her, too. That’s one tough girl.
Even Rob… the old guy in the bunch took some serious abuse trying to land his jump. Keep in mind that this is an especially difficult jump because it’s a downhill slope into a flat landing with no transition. The Dirtsurfers kept digging their noses into the ground everytime the jumper failed to get the front up.
We do not recommend that you try these stunts at home. These people have been riding and jumping for years.
Hope you enjoy the video. Man, that’s gotta hurt!
Cheers,
Brian
