That's a clear example of "un-intelligent falling".

Saw that at 3:00 AM last night when some random fumbling with the remote gave me X-Games highlights.  Amazing thing is that he walked away without serious injury and cracking jokes.

That video's edited: He was on the deck for a 10 minutes and left the building on a wheelchair.

Still in the hospital as far as I know, and not expected to be released until Sunday.

That ramp's ridiculous. It's 27 feet tall, and I believe the drop in is something like 35 feet.

I get nervous dropping in at 3 or 4 feet, and I absolutely will not drop in on anything over 6 or maybe 8 (it depends alot on how the transition is built).

No. MFAWG satisfies himself with the occasional 50/50 grind, but I have a STRICT 2 wheels on the ground policy, unless it's something called a 'Boneless', which I think is a stupid trick anyway.

I am working on 'RockNRoll To Pivot' (I can't skate switch unless it's an emergency, so fakie moves are out as well)

I'll tell you who could probably pull off a McTwist is 360flip, who calls himself that for a reason.

Well, I can't, not with a 40 inch board at this point. I could do it when I was 16 with a 27 incher, but that was 30 years ago.
