Crash of the Week: Monster 50-Foot Backflip to Vicious Faceplant… [iframe id=”https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fmikedouglas%2Fvideos%2F10153887548354639%2F&show_text=0&width=400″] “There have been a couple of grande @joshdaiek backflips fly across my edit screen this week, but nothing quite as epic as this beauty from a few years back. Funny what happens when you go so big that wind resistance over-powers gravity.” – Mike Douglas Crash CrashBrains | August 27, 2016 0 Comments
Crash of the Week: A Hole In One While Skiing…? When you’re attempting to jump up a hill, it is necessary to get plenty of speed to make it all the way up. This guy was lacking the speed aspect and ended up paying the price for it, but hey, at least its a sweet video right… Crash Chris Wallner | November 6, 2015 0 Comments
Crash of the Week: Mt. Baker Road Gap Up-Side-Down FACEPLANT… When you go for the Baker road gap, you wanna make sure that you get plenty of air. If you throw a backflip and you think you’re gonna end up short, you wanna tuck your legs into your chest to increase your angular velocity and get those skis under your body. This guy does neither and pays a hefty price… SnowBrains | October 28, 2015 2 Comments

Crash of the Week: Triple Flip Blackout to Face… “What not to do when trying a triple!! I fully blacked out in the air going for the third flip. Probably won’t be trying that again haha. Edited by Bomber Bob.” – Chris Laker You don’t want to pass out in the middle of a 100′ triple flip. But, if you do, it’ll likely go something like this. This fall hurt and hurt bad. We assume Chris is ok by the tone of his quote above, but damn! that was a hard fall. Face, chest, then the way his leg folded under him. Ouch. Hope you’re OK Chris. You’re a badass for trying it.

Crash of the Week: 30-Foot Front Flip to TREE… This video shows us a guy throw a huge front flip at Kiroro ski resort in Japan directly into a tree. Yes, a big fronty into a tree. Ouch. Somehow, the guy turns out more or less totally fine. In general, when you throw a big front flip into a tree, you’re gonna have a bad time and end up with some sort of season ending injury. Not this guy. Impressive. Lets all remember to scope our landing thoroughly before sending. Yeah, we know, we don’t really do Crash of the Week. Should we? This video shows us a guy throw a huge front flip at Kiroro ski resort in Japan directly into a tree. Yes, a big fronty into a tree. Ouch. […] SnowBrains | June 25, 2015 0 Comments
Crash of the Week: “The Wedge” Newport Beach, CA We need more crash of the week material. Yet, even if we had a lot of crash videos on here, they likely wouldn’t touch this wipeout. What you need to realize about this fall is that where he lands in that “water” is only about 12″ deep. When a wave tosses you off the lip, it’s bad. When “The Wedge” tosses you off the lip, you go skyward. Just watching this guy’s level of comfort in the air is hilarious. […] Surf SwellBrains | May 21, 2014 0 Comments
Crash of the Week: Urban Bodyboarding in Brazil… This video is kinda graphic in its own way as it’s clear that this kid at least got a bit hurt. If you watch closely you can see that he only falls down on section of stairs and stops, so the injuries weren’t life threatening and hopefully […] Crash SnowBrains | April 9, 2014 0 Comments
Crash Of The Week: Norwegian Flip Fail In this weeks edition of Crash of the Week, watch as this Norwegian skier hits a rather large table for the first time…only to flail like a cat out of the window while attempting what appears to be a lawn dart front flip. The guy doesn’t even come close. He skis into the jump 100% confident, but as soon as […] SnowBrains | February 4, 2014 0 Comments
Crash of the Week: Cross Country Skis + Stair Case = Near Death Experience Watch as the guy in this video attempts to ski down a stair case. On cross country skis. With skate shoes taped on as bindings. The ensuing crash is nothing short of spectacular. A full tomahawk and a half, double ejection, hat losing yard sale with a near impaling by his ski makes the cake for this weeks crash of the week. We’ve all been there before. Standing atop a snow covered stair case[…] SnowBrains | January 28, 2014 0 Comments
Crash of the Week: Half Lincoln Loop to Full Cameraman Collision Sometimes in order to get the shot, you have to get up close and personal. And that’s exactly what the cameraman in this video learns. In this week’s Crash of the Week, watch as Friend 1 fails to get any air at all, only to have Friend 2 follow it up with a full send: A half lincoln loop into a full on collision with the cameraman. Lucky for us, they were even […] SnowBrains | January 15, 2014 0 Comments
Crash of the Week: 4 Minutes of Snowboard Failure by Epic TV It’s not ALL ‘fame and glory’ in front of the camera when filming snowboarders – it’s also ‘going down in flames’ and ‘gory’. This is the story of the latter. Watch this video and witness how even the best riders in the world attempt, but more importantly, fail! These snowboarders, the Dopamine crew, push the limits, but every now and again the limits push back and kick the crap out of them. Good on […] SnowBrains | January 9, 2014 1 Comment
Crash Of the Week: First Ever Shoulder to Head Box Slide? Rails and boxes are some of the best places to wreck yourself on skis, whether you’re a beginner or Tom Wallisch himself. At some point, things aren’t going to go according to plan and when flesh strikes metal rail the results can never be good, but fortunately it can sometimes be quite […] Eric Bryant | December 30, 2013 0 Comments
