I can smell fall in the air. I love this time of year– the surf gets good, and snowboarding is right around the corner. And so, since snow is on the way, I dug out some lovely snowboard wipeouts for this week’s episode of Wipeout Wednesday. WW is all about celebrating that fact that part of going big, is going DOWN. Enjoy the mayhem! Got some good wipeout footage? Send it in: letters@wendmag.com.
From Lesley: (could have been WAY worse)

From Frannie: (Not enough speed)

From Jay: (I’m glad someone dug this one up, Nick Perrata circa 1990)

















there’s no contest there. #3 for sure!
i think that is jeff brushie… not perata. i’ll email nick to make sure. i’m sure he would remember THAT wreck if he had it. :)
ETK:
I’m pretty sure it’s Perrata in Critical Condition. I remember a scene a few months afterwards where he’s driving and describing the crash. Really messed him up.
