Jake Burns a Shoe

Jake Bombs A Big Hill at 40mph from Patrick Lawler on Vimeo.

So, Jake loses control of his power grip around 40mph down a hill in SF. He BMX stops it and burns his leg in the process. 2:04 coulda been nasty. It looks like he almost loses it. Glad to see a helmet on your head man!

Is that the hill Hayes stomps out in Maca? Anyway, this definitely makes me wanna roll through SF real soon. Would take on a few hills on my Bruiser and everyone I’ve met from there has been a blast to hang out with. In fact, I think the only person I’d buck fifty would be B34N5. You hear that man?
