every time i see it posted (on facebook, or NS) i always think the same thing. at 1:02 .. what was the guy going for? what if his skis didnt pop off, he would've just slammed his back into a wall... it just seems stupid to me. seems like urban is getting kind of ridiculous...

He would land then go flying backwards into the wall behind him, would be pretty hard to stop the speed he was going

haha uhhhh generally when sailing 20 feet into a vertical wall you bleed off a little speed.

Also, he hits something similar on smaller scale in After Dark, hits the wall behind him and believe it or not doesn't even get hurt...

he had a little bit of an angle. he would have been able to carve away. im sure in the movie you will see him actually do it.

Who the fuck cares? Skiers have been hitting stupid shit for years now. I don't remember anyone questioning The Dumont when he was hitting rails that ended in the Merrimack River...

parker and i set that up with the utmost optimism, then qucikly realized after 4 hits a piece that it really wasn't feasible. i was trying it to forward and was fucking terrified, i couldn't believe we was even attempting it to switch. 15-20 drop redirect with 4' to stop before slamming into another wall was a terrible idea in retrospect.

we did do some damage to other concrete + transition features that trip though, with much better outcomes than that one.

what happens when somebody dies from urban? It must happen eventually in the future. Not that I have anything against the said vid.

Not only are you ignorant to your own sport but you obviously lack any sort of intelligence or wit if you re-post the exact same response, picture and all, that some other unoriginal and unfunny member did the other day.
