Yesterday Colin Winkleman took his life. He was an outstanding athelete who pushed the limits of what was thought possible on BMX throughout his carreer and life.
He will be remembered and missed.

It's very tragic...RIP.
it's still hard to believe it actually happened.
Im not a BMX guy but wow. When they said van jump injuries what were they talking about. Just curious because I saw a gnarly crash of a guy jumping a moving van in a motorcycle movie. Just curious if it were the same guy. Best wishes.
nah man thats not colin, colin held the world record for the longest jump on a bmx bike i believe (correct me if im wrong)he jumped over 12 ford expeditions
The Van Jump you described.. over the moving van.. was indeed the van jump that ended Colins career.
He shattered almost every bone in his lower legs and feet.
He was barely able to walk a year after the accident.
