today at the contest i was doing a slow wheelie and i got blazed over by some kid. Does any body have any video or pictures of it.

 

JC that sucks give me a yell !!!!

 

Glad to see you are doing good. The rider that hit you, didn't look to good. I don't know who he is, though.

 

Didnt seem like anyone really knew him.... he was riding a black/silver f4i...

 

We got a pic a split second before it happened...

Good to hear your alright!!


When my buddy emails it to me, I'll send it to ya. He was taking pics of the Elmo 50 action and it was in the background.

The Elmo Fiddy was James from Urban Velocity (In the Up and Comming Stunt Teams Section). You could not miss him...lol.

JC ... Glad you are ok. Like everyone else...dont know who that was. I will look for a pic of a Blk and SLV F4i and put it up to see if people think it was him.

 

Ok...no pics but I happened to catch it on a small mpeg video from my digital cam. It shows the guy starting his wheelie and going down the track. I turned the camera just as he hit you (you were the white dot way back there). From what I see.. it looks like you were starting a Circle Wheelie and he hit you from your side. Its too big a file for me to e-mail so I dont know how to get it to you.

 

His name is Kellan, he is a buddy of mine. He is still in the hospital with a punctured lung, they're giving him cat scans to make sure he is alright. His bike is pretty much totalled. I think everyone out there on the track could've been a little more cautious. JC, you put your bike sideways on the track after that wheely, Kellan had no where to go, he tried to steer to the right, but you where heading that direction to. I'm not blaming anyone, Kellan should have been a little more aware of what was going on ahead of him. But, when you have everyone waiting behind you to go, and people who don't want to wait cutting in front of you to go, you kinda just had to go when you had the chance. It could've been a little more organized, hopefully it's a lesson for next time.

 

Sorry to see this accident happen. Just glad he is going to be ok.
As far as this not being organized, I would have to disagree with you. We all were waiting our turns to go. No one should of been trying a high speed wheelie behind someone doing 12's. I am still not as slow as some of the 12 riders, but when they went before me then I waited till they got to the end before I did any stunt. Not sure what this kid was thinking trying to go at such a highspeed with someone 12ing in front of him. With 12's you never know if they are going for a circle which it appears this other guy was attempting then bam, he never knew what hit him. At these events, you have all different types of talent. And alot have not ridin' together so do not try to do a fly by when someone else is going about 10-20 miles an hour. Wait your turn and then go. It seems most waited there turn but a few got impatient. I seen a couple close calls due to hispeed stunts and slow 12's. Take this as a learning lesson. Wait your turn. There is no need to be an a hurry. If it was myself that got slammed by this guy. I would be one pissed off bitch. I am really glad that he is going to be ok, because when I first seen him on the ground and the blood. It freaked me out. I hope he does try to help fix this others guys bike. Just for the fact he was in the wrong.
Just my

 

i agree i think it was well organized to. i think that a lot of people were impatient and cutting people off. right now i feel like **** because that kid was doing 3rd gear reckless power wheelies in a slower more controled area. just before he hit me he just about took out my friend but my friend cut a circle to the left so he missed him. like i said in another post some where on stuntlife my bike is totaled so i am screwed

 

Is this it?

Looking at the little monitor on the camera, the bikes looked much closer...

Is this your buddy that he missed right before hitting you?

ya thats brad on the black and yellow bike. is that a pic from before he hit me?

 

SHAGGY SAYS "IT WUDDNNT MEE!"

 

Is that you doing the circle?

If it is, this was right before the hit.

 

no thats my friend he said he was behind me doing a circle right before i got hit

 

Glad your Ok J.C. , and I hope the other guy pulls through also... Anytime we have people who do High speed wheelies that are deffinatley amatures we need to have split practices... There deffinately needs to be 2 different practices like at the Star Boyz events where amatures go out for 15 - 20 mins and then the Pro's go out for the same, and you get 2 practices... If this were the case this probably would have never happened... Nothing like getting hurt over someone elses inexperience...

 

lucky brad learned circles to the left, or he woulda got blazed right there

 

I agree with split practices, but I think there should be a "Slow Wheelie / Circles" practice and a "Speed Pass" practice. This way the crowd gets to see the Stunters doing the "Old School / Fast" wheelies that alot of riders don't incorperate into their routines anymore. I like to see the Pros do the old stuff, too.

 

it is like what jimmy said he is pointing the finger at me. for his dumb *** riders that are trying to progress learn different tricks and yes turning to the right and left doing circles is a new trick. now i understand that you all are not very good and straight line wheelies at 100 might be your thing but you dont do that behind anyone going 5mph. When your friend hit me i was doing a slow wheelie about half way down the track about 15ft away from the right wall. at about 2/3 of the way down i started to cut a circle to the right and gixxer goo a circle is a trick i did not just set my bike sideway on the track. dumb *** gixxer goo go look at stunters pictures look at the first pic under more pics from triple xtreme that is your boy that is out of control when he hit me

 

JC, i saw what happened, and again, I'm not blaming you, I was just stating, that when you set your bike sideways across the track, he had nowhere to go, he was hard on the brakes, but couldn't avoid you. and I'll say this again, if he was a little more aware of what was going on ahead of him, this probably wouldn't have happened, but doing a sit down wheelie, you have limited visibility. He doesn't remember anything at all, but he probaby figured you where going to stay towards to the left where you were.
You weren't doing circle wheelies till you got down the track a little, which he probably didn't see while doing a wheelie, in turn, he didn't know you were in front of him till he set it down, which I'm sure was at the top of 1st gear. So, yes he was going too fast to be going at the same time as you.

Now, as far as you calling me a dumbass, you don't even know me, keep your smartass comments to yourself, don't judge me because of something my friend did, yes he is a beginner, as is most of us out there. Someone made a good point, they should have different practice times for levels or stunts.
Sorry this happened, hope you get better, there's no hard feelings, hope to see more of those doughnuts at the next event.
