He lost it 0.001 seconds after this picture. Poor fella, he was doing so well though during his run.

In his racerun he hadn't skinsuit which covered the entire arm. This photo is from his seedingrun, which he actually made it through the corner.

Amazing drift btw!

He keeps his weight way back compared to other riders. That's why it lifted his front wheel. I wonder how long Chain Stays he run's on his bike cuz I doubt they are close to stock.

flag Whoinventeduphill (Jun 25, 2008 at 16:33)
no. exact opposite. he keeps his weight more forward compared to other riders
