Reports are he got too deep in the corner (270 turn to land) and tried to dig out on his risers. This was on a speed round. He apparently hit the edge water going 60-70 mph.

Trying to dig out with your rear risers will never work. I've seen more than one really bad accident with guys trying to save it on the rears. Too much rear riser will create a high speed stall by making too high an angle of attack.
