Re: Caleb Moore

PD8 made a mistake in his thread title, and asked to have it changed.

On Facebook Blowen motor said that he is having brain complications. I hope all goods for him. It's very tragic!

Re: Caleb Moore

His father or uncle said in a statement that things are not looking good for him that he is not expected to survive. Hopefully he can beat the odds.

He had brain complications and bleeding around his heart from his crash in freestyle, the chances on him living are supposed to be not very good..

Hope he pulls through

If you see it from the straight on angle you will see the sled lawn darts him in the back just below the neck !!!!

Re: Caleb Moore

Yes, X-games Thursday. He under-rotated on a backflip trick and the skis lawndarted. He fell in front of the sled, and the sled cartwheeled and landed on him. I am guessing the impact to his chest caused heart trauma, which in turn resulted in brain damage.

No your right cuso after watching it again and again and again I see it got him in the chest ... Either way its horrific and to know that could happen to any of us at anytime in the back country as well .... But we all know the risks and do what we can to protect our selfs .... Hope he pulls thru with no long term effects

could be a number of things, poor guy hits the snow pretty hard with his helmet/neck at a pretty good angle, then the sled hits him. Double ouch :( can't imagine having to deal with that news. hope he recovers and rides again. thoughts and prayers to his family and friends
