No problem. Not much damage for such a big hill that's good. How's the ankle doing?

hey not you have a excuse to buy stuff for your quad without hearing someone say something about it....prolly the only good thing about breaking something on your quad...you get to buy new parts...and maybe sneek a couple others parts in there as well

it was alright, defintly need paddles , i went over easter weekend and i thought it was busy but locals said it gets even bigger later in the year . i whould check weather before you go . when i was there the sand was still wet from rain and some snow that just melted. unless your a real big dune rat i would say 10 hours of driving is about all you would whant to come. just my openion. it's not bad at all, but mags make it seem alot better hopes this helps. and i'm not down on st anthoneys cause i wrecked ether :p

Wow, I thought St. Anthony's was some of the best and biggest hills I have ever seen. I would half to say that St.Anthony's is my favorite dunes, Wincester Bay second then Coos Bay third. By the way quadrider were are you from?

Have they ever heard of an X-ray before. This seems kinda weird to me. I've been in for ankle damage before and was always told within a hour of having an x-ray on it what the problem was. I would definitly go somewhere else to get it looked at!! Too bad you can't ride for a while. Good luck!!:cool:

Sometimes you have to let the swelling go down to see the bone damage on an x-ray and it can take a while.

I'm not a doctor but I play one with my girlfriend. :devil:

i'm from north east montana by glasgow, and yah it's fun i guess i'm not really the dune type or something . or maybe if they sent me the right size paddle tire next time it would be funner to. and my ankel is at like a 45 degrea angle on the x ray and they just looked at it like :huh and told me to come back in a week . but i'm supposed to race next weekend too .... that was a good one lukester:D

I'd rather drive 22 hours than I would 10 hours with a broken ankle and a tore up quad.
