I have been doing this for a good 4yrs now and feel like I am 26 going on 80. I think my main downfall to stunt riding is having a bad back. After a solid day of riding I can barley bend over the next day.
It's nice to see the negative side of this sport too. This way people/beginning riders don't think it just all fun and games all the time. So lets hear it....either it is previous leg injuries, hand, back, etc how is it affecting you and your riding today?

Little elbow and wrist problem(carpel/carpal?), and lower back probs sometimes. And not much crashing, just bicycles and motorcycles for too many years.. I can succest to everyone with hand problems, that switch to fighter bars, it's so much better for arms/back too.
One thing that motorcyclist usually loose is hearing, driving without ear plugs cause permanent hearing damage. What? What are you saying? Just try to talk with older motorcyclist and you notice..

Re: How has Stunt Riding taken a toll on your body?
Constant lower back pain again. The back will be good to go after I see the chriopractor again. I seem to go there then I'm feeling real good for like a month after that it's time for me to walk around real slow and bitch like just as before. Thats all the issues that arise from stunting with me.See ya......jk www.theuprightsstuntteam.com
