but where do we draw the line? are we just gonna start jumping anything that moves? that gets dangerous fast..
my point is after 3 sleds fall from the sky onto riders in a row, X should get the picture that they are gonna broadcast a serious injury or death if they continue. We arnt talking winter freestyle moto anymore where you can ditch your bike in the air, these sleds are coming with you for the ride once you commit to the jump.
no hate to any of you freestyle snowmobile fans, or any towards caleb. Its just my opinion that the sport is really dangerous. (inb4 skiing is dangerous ect..)
I say its just like anything else. Everyone participating knows the risks involved and riding is part of their lives much like a pro skiier is with skiing. A backflip on a sled was landed before one was on a dirtbike, not
Anything can happen but this x-games proved that the chances are higher that a snowmobiler will have a bad crash and get seriously hurt than a skier or snowboarder... that was proven in this year's x-games. But you're right... anything COULD happen.
They just need to revise the snowmobile portion. Don't take it out. If you watched it live than you watched someone's death.
