    That's a pretty cool id but it doesn't look like trials crashes hurt that much compared to supercross etc, am I right? Or maybe they just don't look painful when they're videoed.

    Well as you saw in the video the Trials guys had catchers. They're job seems to be catching the bike and/or catching the rider. supercross ain't got them. Take away the catchers and I bet we'd see some gruesome stuff!

    I like this youtube compilation which shows some pretty excellent real Trials action.

    Someones white VW car gets the treatment unawares and yes, the bridge stunt rules.

    A perfect example that flow is something the rider creates, not the level designer...

    some more nice youtube stuff

    a smaple section showing a nice track from the rather good 'MOTO the Movie'.
    Which I recommend as it covers all things moto including trials trails MX and the exraordinary extreme enduro disciplines.
    (as well as some staggering jumps that show some of trials jumps aren't that far fetched.)

    And some classic Trials instruction from Legend Dougie Lampkin.
