These stories are truely sad.B-Roc - 19-1-2012 at 05:32 PM
Sarah's accident was sad and tragic. Jeff's is sad but not tragic. He has said many times he knows he is going to die doing what he does and that
its just a matter of when. Lucky for him it was not yet his time. Love what he does but not surprised something like this hasn't happend already.PHREERIDER - 19-1-2012 at 05:56 PM

Om man - I heard on the radio today that the Burke family not only has to endure the loss of Sarah but also is facing a half million dollar doctor
bill because the insurance didn't cover her n this event which was one put on by Monster. I'm sure they've got some coverage but then again maybe not.
Still, a company as big as Monster....I'm sure they'll help? I hope so. I can't imagine the added insult to the loss.Looking_Up - 20-1-2012 at 08:11 PM
I had an accident to day may have a broken or severely sprained ankle
Stepped out of the board and rolled it of a tuft of grass and just after meeting a new local rider but he had an excellent session and mine didn't
even get started can't wait to heel up and get back out there :wee:Feyd - 21-1-2012 at 04:26 AM
It sucks because a lot of insurance companies won't cover injuries sustained in competition.
Sarah Burke was an Icon and a real rider. She'll be missed.
