i just read here on the great atv riders that christian is in the hospital after damp conditions lead to a wreck. i know this really suck and he broke his leg and and sprained his wrist. but it makes you think its just a matter of time before they are pulling this trick off. get well soon Christian and keep pushing the limits

For some reason people who don't know what a backflip is (noob) call it a 360 flip.

I guess the conditions were not good in the first place...so i have no idea why he would risk it in the first place.




But then this would bring me back to our loretta lynn show we did, when it was muddy as h@ll, and we got blasted for Jon not flipping.....the same thing would have happened to Jon......you have to ask yourself if its worth breaking your bones or risking your life over one stupid ****ing flip.

that is a very good point....

but then again the crowd probably doesn't give a crap if the guy crashes they just want to see it. they get mad if he dont do it due to poor conditions, barely cheer when he actually does it clean, and probably wouldn't really care if he crashed while attempting in bad conditions, that is upntil they find out that they wont see the flip for a long time again or at all for that matter, then the people would probably get mad and call him stupid for trying it in the bad weather in the first place....

so pretty much no matter what Jon, or anyone else for that matter, does the crowd will never be happy with it.

Lets hope he starts flipping hundreds more times before he starts thinking about it again in front of people...

When the boss is sketched about him doing it..then thats a problem in my book.

nobody wanted him to attempt it but himself, bc, wes, all those guys were worried, everyone kept telling him don't do it unless ur feeling it, and he went for it anyways cause i guess he thought he could pull it

i saw a video of it, and it was clear, but it rained before he did it, and it was windy... i was told that his grip was wet and his hand slipped off...i am assuming ur talking about the crash in the UK right???
