Happy Birthday to @robturner_17 who definitely owns the title of worst crash I’ve filmed in all my Homegrown Maniacs days.
The classic thing is I’m pretty sure he broke his back again on the exact same date a year or two later doing the same dumb stuff.
They breed them tough but not real bright in Kiwiland…

This is probably the worst crash I ever filmed in my years filming FMX in the bush and one of two occasions we had to call in the paramedics in a helicopter.
It’s @robturner_17 having his bike run out of fuel at the most critical moment in a 5th gear pinned step up in the Kiwi bush while filming for HGM 4.
Turbo broke 5 vertebrae in the accident and ironically a few years later broke his back again riding FMX on the exact same date!

Limehills school nailed the timing of the ski trip this year, the snow and weather conditions were bloody perfect, so awesome to share the vibe with the kids, and even snuck out wide for some Dad turns! The kids progression is awesome, Dads feels like it’s going backwards 😆
Another banger to kick off the week for you. I know I’m biased but I think this is the most hardcore clip ever produced in Australia and may never be repeated.
The reason being that it’s all natural terrain shot throughout Oz, NZ and @jfitzo compound in the USA.
You almost never see footage from natural jumps these days so to get so many in one clip is pretty awesome.
It’s the opening clip to HGM 4- The Curves of Mother Nature and once again stars a cast of thousands including @robbiemaddison@danfrew pulling a hart attack over 180ft, @schuiefmx ripping all round Oz, @harri808@balchin78 landing the first dirt to dirt flip in Oz, good crashes from @handylando@magilla_646 and Rob Turbo Turner.
Also featuring @the_real_p.i@jeremy_furniss@robin_clohessy@russ.lightfoot@landers47 Shaun Richardson, Ben Jones, Shane Townsend @sickestmanalive

This really is the best thing since sliced bread! Super rad sesh with @jimmyjubb on the 9 🦶 then grabbed the shorter @metalsurfboards 7 🦶 2 weapon out for a slide, man that thing is responsive! So good to have a proper hoon on it, and to get off the farm and get some stoke!

Another Pet day done for the year, the kids were stoked and sunburnt, the lead up was intense and there were plenty of stressful moments and tantrums but I finally realised I could do it I took out the Dads cake competition 😆
Coupla new toys cough cough I mean tools for the Farm!! If you want cheap running farm bikes then 2 wheels are the way to go! Cheers @brent_scammell_honda for the upgrades! #oneladyowner #frewfarmfriday #f#*kdrones
#throwbackthursday! That time I claimed the Poster in what was the best FMX magazine ever! @freeridermx
Raddest roady just a mere 17 years ago when you had to wait two months to see the results of a photo shoot! @leithholtzman with the banger photos from @sw18lyons place in Hawkes Bay! @freeridermx #flatout
