Jumping back down, that was the truly scary part.

We watched that on TV... very cool.. hairy landing, broke his hand on the landing but still controlled it.

Hat's off to him.

wow, I didn't know that he broke his hand on the way down, you're right the downside was the amazing part, the step up was just beautiful.

I seen it on TV last night also, as a old ex dirt biker i thought it was very cool. Last night all i heard was he cut his hand on the landing and his G/F kissed it to make it better! lol , to have broken it and still control the bike on the exit from the landing, outstanding........

Is there anyone not voting for Stewart? Although, if Villopoto can avoid the rookie curse...

Watched a blurb on TV a couple nights ago about a guy in a truck going to try to do a complete 180 in the air while doing a jump. Not a screw type turn. I think it would be a barrell roll. I think it was to be after a feetball game. Anybody got any info on that?

**miker** · 01-02-2009, 10:57 PM

as much as I would enjoy seeing either Ferry or Windham be on top of the box, I gotta place the bet on Stewart. Dont get me wrong , Ferry and Windham will be up there a great deal but they really are no match for Stewart, I'm curious to see how Reed does with a little more time under his belt on the Suzuki and not mention that he has been riding with Carmichael lately.
No matter who it is , it's always intersting to watch it unfold, I hope to be in some of the cities this year during work to drop in on a few races.

I was once young and stupid, but not that stupid. What I was talking about was a real jump with ramps and all that good stuff. Like motorcycles when they take off from the ramp and do a complete turn and (hopefully) land on the other ramp.
