    wear proper gear when stunting....

    For all those who like to stunt specially high speed wheelies be sure to wear your gear, regardless of how good you think you are.... this is what happened to me and i tought it will never happen, but to tell you the truth i always wear my gear, at least my jacket, the one day that it is too hot and u decided to wear a tang top is the day **** goes down.

    here is video of me and my friends...

    That's a lot of body surface area. Are they recommending a skin graft? BTW you probably scraped off all the sweat glands, so you might feel hotter when you heal over.

    Were you wearing any gloves at all?

    Well just wanted to make sure this does not happen to anyone else, it was the most excruciating pain you can imagine, and luckily I did not break a bone… so please wear your gear.

    Thanks for the wishes, I have recovered most of the skin without any grafting… but I will have scars for rest of my life especially on the butt cheeks…. Well I guess its good story telling.

    Not really. With only a tank top, he could have being going as slow as 60. Looks like he slid on his back, with his hands down. Doesn't take much to start grinding layers off.

    No way, I never wear any gear and have gone down many times in just a Tshirt. That is high speed rash, 100+ IMO. Watch the video they are passing cars on the highway like they are standing still...

    That sucks, your skin is never going to feel the same. I had some rash like that on my back from when I crashed at 120, and my jacket pulled up exposing my back a little. Its only maybe %20 the surface area of yours and its always itchy and uncomfortable years later...

    You are very lucky thou, at that speed things could have been much worse...Heal up, slow down, think about possibly practicing off the highways. None of you guys in the video are using back brake control...

    BTW how exactly did you crash? Did you loop it?

    Well it looks like he has some of the same Gumbi genes, cause with that amount of rash Id expect something broken. Rubber bones FTW!

    Not saying I can ride wheelies like that, but isnt it better to have your right foot on the peg so you can cover the rear and rest the left on the seat / passanger peg? The dude on the R1 is doing it the other way around, nice wheelies.. sucks about the rash did you loop it?
