[sfa]

what the fuck else can be said here...........

im gonna gnar jakebrown.

[sweets]

Jake Brown goes to the top of my favorites list. I fucking hate the x-games and the element they bring to our dear lifestyle but that actually showed the world what skateboarding is made of. Toughness defined. I'm so glad he's not seriously hurt.

[monster network]

i've been trying to find footage of his mctwist that he made but no luck. anyone?

[donnie_murdo]

he should have won, and Bob should have bowed down and let him take first, his run's we sick, and well that slam and walkign away let alone should be a number one in anyones books

[start choppin]

my work has blocked video so had to wait til i got home to watch it

suddenly, everyone in the world except jake brown is just that bit more of a pussy

you know those emails you get every once in a while about chuck norris? i used to laugh at those, but now i'll be thinking "well, he's no jake brown, is he?"

This morning when I was getting ready for work I saw JB's human trainwreck made The Today Show--Mat Lauwer was trippin'. JB should get some serious photo incentive for making national news; the highest rated morning show no less. Espn should also kick down some serious cash for air time Jakes given them on national news shows.

As jake's good friend it was pretty fucked to watch the dude just fall out of the sky...........fuck that was the worst slam I have ever seem, but yeah he is OK or thats what weiss said last night. He was taken to get a cat scan though I don't think you can slam like that and not have one. He should have won for sure! I mean fuck he lost by .33 points thats a gangster ass jack move on my boy. 

[MexicanSpaniard]

That was absolutely the worst/craziest slam ever! Jake is a machine apparently. It's good to hear he's ok.

[Duffy]

HOLY.
FUCK.
Thats crazy

[h@rry_t3H_pImP]

It just dawned on me that he's larger than life now...at this point I just hope he's ok with gettin brain from any hot-ass model celebrity chick in the world after that shit;)

Seriously though that back360 he also did was so fucking gnarly ... someone post that

I cant believe he didnt get fucked up at all though ... think of the shit duffy had to go through when he fell almost the same way

[obeygiant]

That was so faked to throw off the bookmakers in Vegas for KOTR

are you talking about the 720 he did over the gap or is it a different trick they haven't shown yet?

[sfa]

[Lumpy Oatmeal]

Apparenly, he did a BS 360 ollie over the gap on his run before the 720.

Obey, thanks for putting up that clip. Was that from the Blind video? Stevie Wonder!

[Lumpy Oatmeal]

he did a back 360 with no grab in his run before that

[ahlee]

I want to see his other run. Anyone?

[sebastian toombs]

wouldnt be surprised if ESPN never holds that event again...   can you imagine what was going through their executives' minds at that moment?


out of morbid curiosity, who would have covered his medical bills if hed been injured during the event?

[jrock]

judging by the way skate companies usually handle their riders, he'd probably have to pay his bills himself

Go figure but the NY times is sort of right on in this article.  They basically call out the mega ramp for being more stunt than actual sport.  Also I dont expect the NY times to be perfect with naming tricks but how could Bob Burnquist to a switch backside 180 and then to a switch 540. couldn't only one of the tricks be switch since you would land going regular from a switch 180.

That's just how good Bob is at switch. It defies the rules of trick names.

[friershier]

They were playing the x-games at the gym last night and after Bob did that last trick he rode up to the top of the ramp and knelt down and looked like he was crying with joy and then praying, it was way gay and embarassing.  I finally understood why he got kicked off anti-hero.  He is still a sick skater but that was too much.

[brooklyn brawler]

It amazes me that one of the only last few legit vert skaters in the industry took that fall.


As morbid as this is, I kind of wished it was Bob or Shaun White instead, simply because I know it would hurt them more.

[Home Skillet]

I want to see his other run. Anyone?

also, the more I hear about Bob, the more I can't stand that selfish son of a bitch.

[Sleazy]

that is probably the most well written article i've read in non-skate media about skating

[bjsk87]

like seriously that had to be the worst fall i ever saw.....he shoulda got gold just for it
