Skin grafts suck but what is also bad and causes a bunch of pain is where they take the skin from to attach/cover the wound. Been there and done that but not to the degree of this poor girl in the pictures. MAN !!

They were tour master casual riding pants, had knee and hip armor but no butt protection. Yes he was doing a wheelie and hit gravel. He said he slid long enough on one cheek to go oh f**k that hurts tried to roll over but only managed to tear off the other check. He also ruined a good pair of A* racing gloves and took the meat off of his palms and fingers. The shoulder and arm pics above look like a picnic compared to what he looked like. I was still picking parts of the pants, gravel, and asphalt out of his back and butt a month later.

Ha I knew it on both counts! Nylon gear just doesn't hold up, Kevlar jeans ftw. Oh and as a former "stunta", I've seen "loop ass" too many times! In fact, I've carried three guys personally to the hospital ass up! I bet the bike was jacked up as well! It's crazy what they do when they are crashed this way! |

Exactly my experience with nylon as well, don't tell Krabill and Kaneman... My buddy was wearing a Joe Rocket jacket and it blew apart. He also had pieces of melted plastic lodged in his skin. Yea loop crashes are the worst! The bike comes down on the forks, compresses them and then springs into the air at least 6+ feet and it's end over end tumble time after that! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VwkNsX2Xo00 |
