When Downhill BMX Racing Goes WRONG!

We rode the TRABMX Downhill BMX racing event and it was amazing! So many great riders racing each other and everyone was having so much fun riding together! Matty Cranmer and Vinny Mannino signed up to race and they both won their own races but eventually Matty Lost and was eliminated from the tournament bracket and Vinny had a crash in his race which also took him out of the tournament.

[@stevecunliffe2151]

I love how Scotty massively shouts out the company that made Vinnies helmet and gave a great talk using the bashed helmet to demonstrate the importance of wearing protective gear. So many young kids watch this channel and hes a great person for them to be looking up to. Big up!

[@baphometazrael1892]

I’ve been debating on getting a helmet, shadow one in general actually, for a while now... think I’m go buy one....

[@jeremiahreid8449]

Baphomet Azrael if not a shadow one then any type of helmet. One of the first times I rode a bike I got booted off by a root and landed face first on the concrete but my helmet (which in hindsight was not fitted properly but in this specific occasion saved me) slipped over my face and saved my from having to get all of my teeth replaced and breaking my nose. I only know because the helmet was completely broken like Vinnies. Please wear a helmet 🙏🏻

The feeling of floating straight to flat like that, IS. THE. WORST.

[@makda971]

icedislegit Facts , it’s like anxiety levels go from 0 to 100 real quick

[@jawnjacob7573]

I think it messed him up being so close to his opponent in the landing. I got nervous just watching the view from his cam before he wiped out. If he was just doing a solo time trial, I bet he wouldn't have taken that spill... But then again, he most likely wouldnt have taken that line either

[@squalla5452]

I've always loved Vin, he took that like a champ.

[@joejackson4202]

SCOTTY CRANMER!! I've been watching this channel since "Big Boy VS Rail". Ive said many times in the comments section that your advocacy of helmet safety Is beyond admirable. Proof positive today. You are a hero on so many levels.

Maximum respect to the channel for promoting BMX safety.

Thanks for making helmets cool again! I went over my bars last night and my Shadow certified helmet is the only reason I'm not brain dead. After watching the crash two of my riding buddies are ordering theirs as well. Keep up the great work gang. Best channel on you tube!!!

[@truints]

If you are going to race bmx, use a Full Face Helmet. Those little helmets won't save your jaw or prevent concussions like a full face helmet can.

[@nialloconnell5895]

I was thinking that all the way through, why are they not wearing full face helmets !!

[@rcgfilms1411]

also a bar pad

[@Red1676]

Protecting face, you are right, but the smaller helmets are not that much different other than face protection. Like they use all the same foam and what not. The multi-impact helmets are the true one to avoid for stuff like this. I fractured my skull and was on life support because of one of those helmets failing in a freebord freebording accident. I know a thing or two about helmet safety, I use triple 8 helmet with the mips shell inside when I'm out on my cruiser commuter skateboard. A bit over kill but another concussion could kill me as a result of brain damage. That's what all these guys should be wearing in their videos, a helmet with the mips shell.

[@jacobhout2316]

Reslice no helmet can protect you from a concussion, helmets are used to protect from skull injuries. When you get a concussion your brain gets bruised by hitting your skull, think about if you get a cup of water and put a ball in it no matter how protected the cup is the ball will hit the cup, this same logic applies to your brain and the cytoplasm in your skull

[@clintbrunke2074]

LOVE that scotty puts so much emphasis on helmets on his channel! even before his crash he would not have people on his channel without helmets on because he knew how many young kids watch and look up to him and the people he rides with, and this is a perfect example of why ! vinny could have done real damage with out that helmet and it sucks he crashed but so much better then had he not had one on. and without his helmet during his big crash . scotty may not have even been here with us any more , its not about looking cool or being comfortable its about being safe .

[@josuelopez4760]

Scotty would love to be rippin on that track!!! Win lose or draw!🙌🏻

[@zacjohnson452]

PRO TIP: don’t do high speed downhill cycling without a full face! They save lives and obviously injuries! Edit: finished the video, and while yes a full face is better, an open face Is still much better than nothing!

[@MrChan...]

TheBloodMango dafuq is the difference between a full or open face? Fr don’t know

[@joedancollard3114]

Kear Mysery open face is your jaw and all under your forehead it’s all not protected so you can hit your chin and all and get more injured

[@benjaminburton45042]

So glad Vinny survived that without worse injuries. It drives me crazy watching pro level events where helmets are not required, like Battle of Hastings. Scotty, you should put a disclaimer in every video telling kids to wear their helmets. Just a quick reminder at the beginning or end of each video. Also, this event looks sick!! #RIDEWITHSCOTTY

[@goosegutz]

All crashes aside ( and that was a mad jump that led to that crash) this is what the old time bmx was like although even more extreme. This is exciting fror the riders and spectators unlike the over groomed pump track rolling sessions that we see on most tracks now.

[@azonly1fallenangel972]

[@avg_fit_dad]

Crazy crash. Glad Vinnie is good to go! I had a similar crash when I raced. I work a half shell like that, then upgraded to full face. A week later at a race, I cased the back lip of a triple step up and flew over my bars. Landed face first and split my helmet in half in the front. Since then, If I ride track, I wear a full faced. Never a half shell again.

[@shaunmilor]

VINNY IS THE MAN sick racing skills

[@jaimepettet9439]

Props to both matty and vinny well done boys get em next time

[@C0zyDunt]

I think "Don't be a helmet. Wear one". Thank goodness Vinny was. Some people think you don't look cool wearing them, so they don't, but how cool would Vinny be looking now if he hadn't been wearing one. Well done you guys for always promoting helmets. 👍

[@m2esectr]

This is why it’s important to have an EPS helmet. When Scotty got his TBI, he was still using an old soft foam helmet which does not protect beyond 2.5 feet. However, Big Boy already had EPS at that point, which is why his head stayed intact. Thanks Scotty for noticing that difference here and praising how Vinny’s EPS kept him alive!

[@dandymcgee]

Vinny hit that jump with 200%.. the landing wasn't prepared for him.

[@gingercatd3]

Scott is awesome he has so much positivity that it makes me positive and he has such good friends that they all act like family which they basicly are.

keep your head up bro that looked like a brutal slam and you got back up and hopefully you get back on that bike, keep killin!

[@oiooiioioiooioii5400]

Ouch, he chipped his tooth on the handlebars. painful. That was a huge air!

[@CrymInAction]

That's a serious scalp slider! All those rock dents would have been stitches or worse.. I had to laugh when he said the mouth guard was in his pocket though. PAD UP kids! They may be hot and sweaty, but you'll spend more time riding, and less time in recovery.

The go pro footage brought back some memories from my youth,it was good. Glad to see that Vinny was OK, a new helmet is a small price to pay after going down. I understand all the comments for fullface helmets but it comes down to the riders choice and what they want as far as their own safety concerns and preference.
