jake brown just got worked on skate big air. x games. like a 30 foot fall to flat bottom. i felt like i just watched someone jump out of a hotel window to the parking lot.

blew his shoes off on impact. that will be on you-tube tomorow. alright back to spearfishing sorry.

Yeah he got his clock rung, that is a fact. I think it was more like 45ft to the deck. They said the ramp was 27ft to the coping and then I think he was 18ft above that.
And then on top of that he gets up and walks away. Insane
I bet he is sore today.

I watched that , it was wicked !

Holy SHITE.

F*cking gnarley!!! I fell around 15' out of an oak tree on Monday, and torqued up my ankle pretty bad. Only today did I stop walking with a limp. After watching that I feel like a pillow biter....

Holy shit! :eek:

I'd be really surprised if he didn't get a concussion from that and/or a broken tail bone.

Ouch.

i guess we will have to see if chad kagy or hoffman to the same thing tonight. i am surprised after last night that they don't run a tape delay so as not to show someone getting killed.

Thats out of control,when I saw that on the news this morning it hurt just to watch, but imagine one of the moto cross guys stalling half way through the flip, I can't imagine how well that would work out for you

Oww...

Brown begins recovery

Skateboarder Jake Brown, whose 45-foot free-fall Thursday night brought a hush to the crowd at Staples Center, remains hospitalized after suffering bruises of the liver and lung, stress fractures in his vertebrae and a small fracture on the top of one hand.

Brown, 32, who was injured during the big air competition on the mega-ramp during a silver medalist performance, is expected to be released from the hospital today or Sunday and make a full recovery.

"Doctors said there was no paralysis or anything like that," said Bryce Kanights, team manager for Adidas, which is among Brown's corporate sponsors.

Kanights was critical of X Games medical personnel for not immobilizing Brown immediately and placing him in a stretcher.

A hospital spokesman refused to discuss Brown's condition.
The Carlsbad skateboarder, who missed the transition after soaring nearly 20 feet above the 27-foot quarterpipe and landed backside-and-feet first on flat wood, lay motionless for about two minutes.

He was rolled over a minute or so later and helped to his feet eight minutes after the fall. He was then escorted to a hallway and placed in a wheelchair.

He also suffered a mild concussion and could not immediately remember performing a 720-degree spin across the 70-foot gap leading to the quarterpipe -- the first time that maneuver has been accomplished in competition.
