Benny Phillips Injury Update
Benny recently went down during filming for his latest edit, unfortunately Benny's injuries included breaking his Tib, Fib, separated his Tib from his Fib, dislocated and broken ankle whilst attempting a Frontflip Tailwhip in the Whistler Bike Park Airdome. Benny got real close on a few attempts, but unfortunately had some hard luck on his last attempt. However his is staying positive and will be back killing it on the bike as soon as he can, healing vibes go out to Benny!

 | I broke my arm at Burgline and have only been on the bike for 4 weeks since my recovery from that, then to break my leg is pretty disappointing. It's upsetting to see 2012 go down the drain for myself, but the time off the bike, sponsors, friends and family, I am motivated more than ever to have a successful 2013. - Benny Phillips |
