Ox Goes Flat Lando Commando!

Here’s a little update from Jeff the Oxecutioner Kargola…which means he is still alive.

It was supposed to be just a quick trip to Kansas City to ride a show for the Freestylemx.com Tour; unfortunately, though, there is a BUT! Yep, I had just got geared up and took a run at the ramp and, well, it only took one to end my day. I went a little on the long side, landing at the base of the landing right where the landing ramp meets pavement. Now, in a normal situation it would have been a rough landing, and I could have shaken it off, regrouped, and got the show on the road. But this time my front wheel decided to explode–breaking spokes and cracking the wheel–which sent me head first to the ground and on to the hospital shortly after just to get checked out. Fortunately for me no broken bones, just a bruised ego and a nasty headache! Back to practice, dew is right around the corner…

Just getting ready for another demo…

Ouch, shoulda tightened those spokes…
