Default nice air

when your friends tell you that you can go twice as fast.... think about it, that means you'll go twice as far.... when you land in the middle of the pit the first time, think about it. But this is one of my favorite clips

This foam pit is part of Travis Pastrana's (moto-x rider) practice area. I've seen a kid that looked about 12, hit the ramp and go off to the side trying to do a flip, this was on (I'm ashamed to admit, on MTV cribs).. anyways, the kid lands off to the side right after Travis states, this pit allows us to practice virtually risk free.... then BAM, put the kiss of death on that one. He was ok, he walked it off. And the guy in this video goes away in an ambulance for a busted up leg and I'm sure more. It's on one of his for videos, I don't know which one... he has 88 available on his site.

I too saw the episode on Cribs when that kid went too far off the side....never thought anyone would be stupid enough to do it on a sport bike. [>:]

I watched that kid do it and remembered this video... so I thought I'd post it up for everyone to see.

stupid.... guts... who knows... I'll never try that. I wonder what was going through his mind when he noticed how far he overshot the pit.
