Was that crash due to problem with jump, mistake by BK, mechanical or little of each? Looked to me the wheel just said I'm out this is too much.

I am wondering if that rim took such a hammering at Val Di Sole it had a small crack, he then rode all the other big features at Hardline and it finally gave up with that overshoot.

It seemed to be a careful combination of all three. The lip was a bit steep and was later leveled off a bit, he was a bit front high and really slapped the front end down hard on landing and his front wheel gave out as a result.

Too far Stik. . . . we don't need to see someone else get seriously hurt or worse. There was a crazy stat that came out of Val Di Sole that about 45 riders were unable to make the finals start. Reminds me of some of the craziness that was going on in the early 2000's with course setup that were sending people to the hospital. With that said, healing vibes sent to the GOAT, Greg Minnar.

Broke 3 vertebrae in a crash during practice. There's a video somewhere.

he just showed up in jono's day 3 vlog and was sitting out today. having a hard time holding on to the bars. unsure if he'll race. they also tweaked the jump a bit after his crash.

He said there’s a 10% chance he’ll race, so definitely not. Seems to be giving advice and support from the sidelines.
