Some photos of things going wrong at the Ranch Style competition. It is amazing how these guys can bail out and survive to try again.

Doesn't look too bad here. |
 |
Didn't end so well. |

Jack Ludlam tried the front flip twice. He was already sporting a brace on his right wrist at the start of the competition. On his first attempt he crashed and thought he had re-fractured his right wrist. But went back up for another attempt anyway. On his second attempt here you see he is under rotated. |
 |
This is about a micro second before he fractures his "left arm". I was close enough to here it snape. He didn't win the $1000.00 prize but probably got a hefty bill from the hospital.

Joe Perrizo had never tried a double back flip into a foam pit or water, but that didn't stop him from trying to throw it down at this competition. He tried three times. |
 |
This was his 2nd attempt and he took it hard to the jeweled area. |
 |
Joe's third attempt ended a bit under rotated. |
 |
This head slap knocked him silly. |
 |
His limp "body grinder" was impressive. |
 |
This ended the competition for the night. He was up and back competing the next day. |
Slope Style day.

One of my favorite photos of the weekend. |
Until next time.
... This is why I'm looking to build a pump track instead of jumps in my yard...
