That takes skill to do that, although it does look a bit too far to save.
looks like he might hold it! haha

Very impressive (if he came out of that corner rubber side down).

I really think he will pull it off. Nothings touching down yet, the rear is still on the ground and his front wheel is lined up well to avoid a highside once he straightens up. Also he has both feet on the pegs and if he thought for a second he was going to lose it, his inside leg would be out already.
Hero. :)
Love to see the next frame though.

He's going down.
Missed the apex, and at that angle of lean, plus the fact he's run of steering lock.....the front wheel will actually start 'hopping'.
Done it beach racing many times....close, but NO cigar.

He's toast I reckon. Good effort though.
His other footpeg, out of sight behind the front wheel, is well on the deck, you can only drag a peg so much before the weight comes off the tyres & it's all over... DAMHIK

My two cents is its going down. However, he's still a hero - come on, tinted visor AND sunglasses? How can he not be?
I'd say he's down too - to come back from that you need your inside leg on the deck as counterbalance or support.Obviously a tarmac rider who hasn't learnt to use their legs off road.

He may have even put it down and had it dragged backwards.....
Either way....he's down alright.

Awesome picture.
Dude is from Israel, judging from other pictures of him I found on marshals.co.il he fucked up that corner.

I suspect zero - but what some of those motard blokes can do is quite incredible......if they have had enough sleep.
He may have even put it down and had it dragged backwards.....
Either way....he's down alright.
From the other photos he uses a leg out style - so you're right,he's tucked it in to bail.
