LOS ANGELES -- Jake Brown, who had a spectacular crash in Thursday night's "Big Air" skateboard competition at the X Games, was released from the hospital on Saturday.
He suffered a lung contusion and a right scaphoid (wrist) fracture and will have surgery next week for the wrist fracture,
Brown spent two nights in the hospital after falling 40 feet on the Skateboard Big Air mega ramp during his fifth run Thursday night at Staples Center.
After pulling off a difficult 720 over the ramp's 70-foot gap, he launched up the adjacent quarterpipe and immediately lost control. Plunging face first, his legs pedaling wildly, Brown turned over in the air and landed on his tailbone, with his head and limbs hitting soon after.
