    ouch, I have had a few of those crashes. :shock:
    I think the worst part of the crashes like that are that you see the crash coming and even though you panic rev it you can't pull it out.

    hiya! yeah, it really did stink when I realized that it was going down, and I couldn't get it back up! That is when I threw my hands up and thought "no no no, I am not breaking another bone on this stupid jump!!" ha ha! I am ready to ride this weekend though! I did get a new helmet, bars and grips out of the deal... so thats not too shabby!! :)

    very glad to see you are ok after that get-off. Keep at it, and thanks for the reminder that just because I've cleared a big table top a bunch of times, it can still bite me if I lose focus.. and at 43, I don't bounce off the ground so good anymore!

    Heather, I compare big jumps to sky diving. When it's good, it's great, but it only takes one bad day to really mess you up! :) Glad you are OK.

    Glad to see you're okay. You did look GREAT in those previous jumps. Looked like you had it down. That's the thing about this sport...just when you think you're in the groove....

    Anyway, I'm sure you'll spank it next time. Best of luck!
