Why did he veer to the right just before takeoff ? You'd think jumping the bike would be alright but it appears he was trying to do a "cross up " as well .....

I'm wondering if he had stabbed the rear brake in a attempt to get a more "nose up" attitude prior to landing. Not being a jumper, I'm not sure if it's hitting the rear brake of giving it more gas that would cause the front end to raise up in flight. I always kinda thought it was the latter and hitting the brake made the front drop. Of course, I could be wrong on both counts.
Not that or sliding back on the rear seat or doing anything else to get the nose up would have mattered much. Neither would have had much of an effect on his general direction.

He was on the cover of a mag once, what was the name of the mag that used to cover prostar events, Street and strip?
Surprized it took him that long to crash. I think his bike was in Biker Boyz as well.

And hitting the brake causes nose down.
