x games mishap

anyone see this? apparently he's a freestyle moto x rider with about 4 hrs of sled experience. this was the first hit, second one throttle stuck again but the sled was tipped on its side. buddy just punches the skis a bunch of times, then the snow and walks away while the sleds sittin there screaming. let the workers deal with it. dudes got balls but seems like a bit of a douche.

Oh muffin, things didn't go his way so he threw a hissy fit.

Total douche.

Gotta say, freestyle snowmobile is pretty friggin dull. Barhop, superman, backflip, varieties of these. Bam, the sport. Just one dudes opinion.

Re: x games mishap

Can't believe these guys are doing the big air tricks with no tether kill switches .......... Saw couple of the sleds full throttle, and the one sled ran into levi's truck, when it took off ........ The other was upside down full throttle............................................. Jus' waitin' for a serious injury/accident, or what?

Probably be a good scenario for a teth-air.

Yeah they either need teth air or remote kill like monster trucks. Its a little western not having anything at all. I wonder how the kid that got smoked by the sled is doing?? They took him to the hospital apparently.

I believe they said it was a knee injury. Didn't sound super serious.

Caleb Moore just passed away.

Freaky how similar the Bodin crash in post #1 is to the Caleb crash. For a while I thought they were the same one. Big difference is that one guy gets up, one guy does not.
