Jaie Toohey In The Hospital

Jaie has been a man on a mission lately, and has been pushing himself harder than ever to learn new tricks. One of those was the Backflip Triple Tailwhip which you can see HERE, which has never been done before! Another is the massive Backflip Superman Seatgrab, which Jaie had pretty dialled, before having the horrific crash you see above! Jaie sent us an update on how he's going, and if you want to watch the full video of the crash, go HERE.

What up, guys? Over the past few days everyone has been wondering why there has been so many "get well" comments all over my Facebook. Well, I've been in the hospital.

I was learning a new trick, the Backflip Superman Seatgrab and when I took off the lip I missed my grab. I was just stuck upside-down and I couldn't get out of it, and ended up coming down on my head.

I wasn't able to move at all, which was pretty scary. I got stretchered out and rushed to the hospital and straight into the emergency room. Luckily I only ended up with a heap of pinched nerves in my neck and down the back of my spine. I was very lucky to walk out of that hospital and it was definitely the scariest moment I have had in my BMX career.

I'm taking a few days off the bike to recover, then I'll be straight back into it next week, learning as many new tricks as I can and getting all my stuff dialled before I head to Las Vegas for the last stop of Dew Tour. Wish me luck!
