Description
After coming out of his turn the jumper tried to avoid an obstacle by pulling his legs up. Unfortunately he had his hands in his frontrisers and pulled them down while pulling himself up. He collided in a dive with a second obstacle behind the first he had avoided. He had just downsized from a 135 one week ago.
