Default X-Games 15, Supercross Crash!

This is our friends Son Max at the Supercross race at Xgames 15 last weekend, he's JUST Turned 16 and has an incredibly bright future ahead of him as long as he doesn't suffer too many of these bad crashes :-( (P.S, he's the guy getting landed on)!

His Dad Mervin was one of the Top British riders in the 80's and early 90's - My parents were good friends with them and we've seen Max develop over the years to become one of the future stars of World Motocross & Supercross, he absolutely dominates the European supercross races and is so good to watch!

Look up some of his other vid's on youtube if you're interested.

You'd hope he'd get some sort of punishment - he didn't even get up to go and help or check Max was ok!!!

Very bad move i reckon, not something you see very often but pretty poor riding really, lucky he didn't do any serious damage when you think how much the bikes weigh when on the ground let alone falling on you!

I was going to say where where the marshalls they should of been out on the track going to get him there priority was the bikes. Max looked pretty badly injured and needed help.

Hahaha you love it Griff! When you come down to Lee's you should take his pit-bike out, at least it sort of looks like the real thing

Yeah Max is looking good - the next couple of years i think he's going to be pretty special!
