My first......

[EsPeGe]

So I know this isn't exactly a "Phat Vid" but I'm pretty pumped on it. I know it's only to an airbag but its the first step and with some more practice I'm going to dirt. Sadly, after this......

This happened...... when I under rotated.

Nice one dude! That's a pretty big, slow rotation too. That bruise just about rivals @moorey's.

I vote this video a "Phat Vid" even if you don't. Ballsy!

 

[CHEWY]

Awesome.

That's sick, massive for first one.
Lets us know your process for working up to that point. Airbag or not there's no way I'd try it haha.

I've done plenty of backies into the pool so I had an idea of the rotation. When I decided I was gonna have a crack I went to a trampoline place and practiced there for an hour a couple of days the week before. Then it was bag time. Like anything you've got to go 100% if you don't you get the 2nd scenario!!! I definitely suggest that line of progression. You can fuck yourself up pretty easily on a tramp so even there you've got to be careful and committed.

So that was first one on an actual bike, or you did them on a bike into the pool?

I have no drama ripping a big backy on my kids tramp haha, but on a bike just seems like a whole different thing all together!

Thanks guys. It's a super rad feeling to set a goal and conquer your fear and let me tell you, even though it was into a bag I was still shitting bricks.

Yep first time on a bike. Honestly it feels pretty similar. Initiation and commitment are the keys. But I've only landed the one so take that shit with a huge grain of salt.

That's super cool. Not something i'd ever try but super cool.

What hit you in the butt with the under rotation?

 

[pink poodle]

Fuck yeah!!!


Your mate must have whacked you really hard!

 

[hellmansam]

Awesome backflip ! the bruise is pretty awesome too

Thanks mate, the saddle I think.

In the interest of healthy competition how's this now compared to Mooreys??? I never saw his but I wanna beat him!!! It's even migrating to the front of my leg and into the top of my calf!!!

 

[Isaakk]

Good god man, that's a hell of a bruise

 

[Jpez]

I think Moorebags has been dethroned.

 

[leitch]

Holy fuck haha that's brutal. Might be worth keeping an eye on that

 

[EsPeGe]

It's the best one I've ever had that's for sure.

I think we'll need independent adjudication!!!! Unless he wants to concede??? @moorey thoughts???

EDIT: Get to Hospital Now.

+1000 Monitor the fuck out of that bruise region. Heparin cream will help resolve the bruising once it stabilizes, but make sure it's not compressing a nerve pathway or other crucial body infrastructure. send a pic to your GP or whoever. Still might be worth icing it, YMMV
