6 months after breaking his femur in three places at Loosefest XL, Adolf Silva has posted footage of the crash that caused the injury. Silva was hitting the first big double of the course when he overshot and tried to bail out the front door mid-air. He explains that his femur broke when it hit his frame as his front wheel landed halfway down the transition of the jump.

The crash meant Silva was unable to ride Rampage this year but he has apparently started doing some light pedalling again and should be able to start riding properly again in about a month's time to start preparing for the 2020 season.
Hope you heal up well, a femur break is a serious one.
