    Re: gif repost: dragging helmet

    Its impressive. Wish I could get anywhere near low enough to the ground without crashing to put my helmet down.

    Re: gif repost: dragging helmet

    I was obviously doing it wrong at the track day I went to, as I couldn't touch a knee, yet scraped a peg in the bowl of all places

    Very common with first time/inexperienced track riders. What bike you're riding also plays a huge roll.

    Re: gif repost: dragging helmet

    I see this dude frequently at the track days out here, not sure I would call his head drag "impressive". Imagine Loudon's bowl but 8 times longer and even more banked, you can drag just about anything in there. Ghillieman is also a former stunt rider, so he's used to doing tricks but when it comes to going fast he would get SMOKED by the competition at the CVMA club. Also, look in the video and see how much he has to strain his neck to actually drag the thing. All the local experts out here could probably do it to if they wanted to ruin their helmets and look like a goon.

    Re: gif repost: dragging helmet

    I like that the title says "drags his helmet going fast".
    Id be more impressed if he did that going slow...

    Granted I can't drag my foot while upright..

    I can drag my helmet going slow. It just can't be on my head.

    I don't disagree with anything you said, but all the fast local experts would impress me as well.
