THIS IS THE REASON, the CSPA needs to get there helmets more sytible for events.. its not really a freak accident.. Look at all the concussions ( bleeding and swelling of the brain) that Robbie Bourdon got from attempting to flatspin the thing in Utah, in the NWD movies.

I feel really bad for jer, and I cant imagine what his family must be going through. To be only 24, and gone due to a head injury, it just isnt right. I understand that street riders dont like helmets, for whatever reason, and thats thier problem, but in the way of DH, and MTX, the helmets need to be built to absorb full impact, instead of sending it to the brain, and other areas. I know they help, but when your going like 70 mph on a 1500 pound machine, anything can go wrong, and will go wrong.

Im not able to ride DH anymore, because of these concussions I sustained, to a poor helmet, that cracked when i got into my accident, and that has left me wanting to hit the mountian, but i cant due to this.

Thi swill be a sad thing to see in the MTX world, my condolances to the family.
