X-Games Crash

January 29, 2008

No good news today: I had a bad crash yesterday in the semifinals at the X-Games. The course was getting faster in the last days and the last 2 jumps got more difficult as we jumped so far. Unfortunitly there were many crashes because of the higher speed in this jumps. I was really kicking ass in my run and felt ready to get the gold back… until I crashed in the 2nd last step-up jump…As a result of this crash I have a small fracture in my pelvis on the right side now. It is not soo bad but I’ll have to walk on crutches for a while. I cannot explain why I crashed because I didn’t do any mistake before the take off but I think I cought some side wind when I was already in the air and I was twisted to my left. No chance to land on my skis!Results women:
