My Worst Motocross Crash Yet - Cahuilla Creek MX Vet Track

Well that one hurt! Came up a bit short after hitting the triple perfect all day... Everything happened so fast and I am extremely lucky to have gotten out of it with some bad bruises and scrapes, but overall nothing serious. This was a good wake up call to how dangerous moto can be sometimes! I'm excited to get back out on the bike soon.

I love you specified yet😂😂👍💪never give up!

[@BobSmith-vs5jp]

Bike sounds awesome glad you’re ok. Thanks for sharing

[@jeffwarrack9059]

I would strongly suggest that you stiffen up the forks and shock, that wasn't that bad of a case. Enjoy!

[@jannys_lyfe2055]

he didnt hit back wheel or front wheel first just straight frame case hence why he crashed

[@stevesmith756]

That downhill triple thing is not big. Way way too soft of suspension. I can short that and my suspension soaks it up. AHM did mine

[@shmirdonkin]

Either his suspension is too soft or he locked his knees bracing for the impact of the case. Even that though shouldn't send you over the bars.

[@stevesmith756]

@@shmirdonkin I’ve cased that many a time. No issues at all. He needs to get his forks and shock done

[@dylkelley]

That specific one definitely hurts my ankles if I come up short, even though it’s a small hit

[@johnfryman4428]

Live to ride another Day. Also - Why does a Vet track have a triple like that ? Tabletops all Day !

[@shiftbuilt]

Called a vet track not a table track. Peewee track might have what you’re looking for!

[@matrix-_-teddy8215]

wow im so glad ur ok and i cannot belive u got up from that. your very strong bro good job.

[@beverywhereyouare]

You walkede away !! YAY ... glad ur ok dude.

[@Dickweed]

Glad you're okay dude that seemed pretty gnarly. Been wanting to hit that triple but defnitely rethinking it now 😂

[@Z1Electric]

I did the same thing on that same jump 3 months ago with really bad suspension and broke 2 bones in my leg

[@dirtbikelunatic]

Hello! Would it be okay to use it in compilations and maybe on some of ours Social Networks? You will get full credit for it. Thanks

[@Test-of7de]

Yeah of course 👍🏼😊

[@MoreMoto262]

Hard hit, glad you’re good, going there tomorrow.

[@iSin987]

im glad you made it out safely triples can screw you if you case them. learned that the hard way last year at jordan river hov in utah. fractured my tail bone, poked a hole in my lung, and broke my t8 vertebre and broke my sternum worst 7 months ever lol.

[@bobbyblenio4571]

Sorry to Hear that 😵….Moto has a Bad Side Too😬

[@dirtbikelyfe23]

Glad your okay dude. Did the same thing tried hitting the triple and cased it hard but surprisingly i saved it though.

[@shiftbuilt]

Get your suspension done, Your worst moto crash and you didn’t break a bone, doing good🤘

[@jeffledsome-oj6ku]

Like the photos at the end

[@joeeaves3088]

Major lucky bro. Hell yea.

[@TRGP331]

Odd as it sounds, as soon as you realize you’re coming up short, level out/pitch the bike so the front wheel hits first. This will keep the bike from kicking you over the bar

[@COWASOGGY]

Funny how some of the worst looking crashes dont affect the rider at all, but tipping over in a straight line going 10 mph can be deadly lol

[@yodavizion]

Yeah glad your good man!! That was nar nar

[@nathanhouterman3440]

solid effort...

[@ButtSnorkler9000]

Definitely not worst possible scenario when you’re walking away

[@sheldon8801]

He didn’t say worst possible scenario… he said his worst yet lmao

[@stevesmith756]

Way way too soft of suspension. I ride a 21 kx450. 3rd gear easy. I can short that jump and soak it up. AHM suspension done right

[@se11459]

Sorry about that crash. The way you hit that jump was really weird though, and likely caused it (bear with me). You went into the jump at constant throttle. I've never really seen that before. You were hitting the jumps before that one great, lots of speed so you could hit them with the throttle off. That particular jump would have been better if you clicked up a gear, then eased off before it, then blipped off the face. Because you didn't blip off the face and bike was already pretty revved out, you didn't get the compression and lift off of it. Definitely click up another gear before the face, you will thank me for it!

[@se11459]

The previous lap you greased it because you hesitated coming out of the corner because of the rider in front. That meant you were still accelerating, so it was perfect! The second lap you came out the corner with more speed so you were like done accelerating by the time you go to the jump putting you into a kind of no-mans land hence the constant throttle. This is my professional analysis lol. Last thing - you are doing this thing on the tables with a shorter run up where you are still accelerating after you take off, which cuts major style points :). You are doing this because you are barely getting sufficient speed out of the corners so you are still hard on the gas. The answer is to clutch the bike coming out of the corners - something you don't seem to do at all - which will give you plenty of power to clear the jumps without revving the bike out in the air. Cheers!

[@DomBeal57]

You should never blip off the face of a jump

[@se11459]

@@DomBeal57 You blipped at 1:30 on your Pirinis video that I checked out...

[@user-mo8tm4jw2l]

@@DomBeal57you would be entirely correct sir. This squid doesn’t know what he’s talking about. Constant throttle off a jump is the safest way to hit it. Really the only way. Gotta case nose first if possible and if not you hold it on so you hopefully on/off whatever you case or the bike will endo on ya just like it did to homi. 👊🏻👊🏻👍🏻

[@Five-Four-Racing]

Dang I used to live right by this track and would hit that jump in 4th myself. Should stiffen the suspension on your bike some.

[@callumfinaughty6779]

Sounded like you were in too low of a gear!

[@braydennienhuser5546]

should have gave it more out of the corner then shifted up a gear. when you stay in a low gear like that it’s easy for the bike to lose speed if your wrist backs off the throttle even just a little

[@bobbyblenio4571]

Glad Yer OK bud…I Learned How to Not Crash Casing a Jump….if this Ever happens Again,Just Before you Land…Hit Both Brakes & Hold Em til you Finish the Landing…Also Stand While your Landing & Stay Standing !!!…you went Over the Bars because You were Sitting !!…the Weight of your body Compressed the Suspension And it Threw you Over,when your Standing & Braking…the Suspension Will Compress But Won’t Rebound When you Land as Much as it Would if you Don’t Hold the Brakes All the way Through the Landing,I’ve Crashed that way a Few Times but Learned How Not to Go Over from what I Explained…Trust Me…It Works !🦾🤘🏁
