Mark, the picture you sent didn't look too good, what happened?
Mark: we rode a miniramp demo in Urk for Sony. I did a flair and I have to put my foot to the ramp while landing because it was not so clean. That was for sure not the right decision.

How did the Dutch people treat you in the hospital?
Mark: Oh that was very good! They were very friendly.

When you do shows, you normally do not give 101% and do the tricks you know you can do. What went wrong on the flair?
Mark: I don't know! I've been riding bmx for 17 years now and know how to bail and crash but sometimes you make wrong decisons. That was one of these wrong ones.
