rear brake was broke..........

Answer 3

I don't know if any one is absolutely sure, however, they were saying something was wrong with his rear brake. Honostly, I feel terrible that all his hard work and training was wasted because of an equipment problem, but seriously, the guy completely exploded like a five year old. I respect all of the the athletes in the X-games an extreme amount because of how hard what they do is. Seriously though, other people have had bike trouble/ car trouble (rally car) and didn't act like idiots infront of thousands of people. That guy probably lost loads of fans for being so immature (and MAYBE some minor sponsers). You look at the other guys crashing, making mistakes, and having problems with equipments and just walking/laughing it off and then you see Twitch (a great rider) completely erupting with anger and stupidity. I think im done rambling on now, so i'll stop.
