Jaw

I've aired and landed some volcanos and flyboxes backwards to flat. Really annoying that i don't land into tranny smoothly like i did 2 years ago when i didn't air so much.

Situation:
I was in a park that was built for a competition held last saturday. This park will be moved to my local indoor park later.

I aired straight over this flybox backwards (from right to left on pic) without any trick. I landed one footed to flat and hit my jaw to my bars.

Result:
flesh wound, 1.8cm (3/4") long cut, got stiches. !mistrust


I was lucky enough not to break my jaw bone and loose teeth :)

I was wondering, if anyone has had something like this?

hah, i did a whip frontscooterflip, and stomped the landing, and i somehow punched myself in the jaw when i landed it. Itll be in dxg2 outtakes ;)

lol kenny, i was trying to pull my grips off once and punched myself in the face. Damn dried out grips.

Unlucky Madis, if you broke your jaw you'd of been fooked.
 
Ive never hit my jaw (nor have I been punched in it), but even though I have some really strange jaw issues. One of the joints of the jaw is somewhat loose so it like clicks, which makes me move my jaw randomly in a bizarre manner. Another thing is that every time I bail hard (as if my body hits the ground) and the jaw is NOT hit, the shock from the impact is somehow transmitted to the jaw and makes it hurt, haha. I can't figure out why this happens but it's true.

Oh and Madis, it's good that you didn't have neither Buff's or my bars, an aluminum stem would be a real jawbreaker.

hahaha, yea, yours and buffs have those edges too. Still pretty weird that my jaw flesh would rip open just by hitting it onto my bars. That has never happened before when i've hit my jaw onto my bars.

yea, probably gonna do a only-scoot sesh there too soon, jam or maybe a comp, we'll see ;) I'm not promising anything tho, just some thoughts.

I'd love if that flybox would have a flatbank landing too, i don't like wolcano-type flyboxes.
