HOLY **** man!!!! Matt, that is NUTS that that happened there. I dont believe it... Did it happen at the spot where I busted my shift shaft and bit it hard over that double??? That jump threw me a little nose high but my wreck was due to my shift shaft. It sounds like the same jump to me man. You go up that hill by the big step up and then rip that turn, hit the ski jump on the way down and nail it right into that double right?? Damn, I just got my bike back together and was gonna break it in and do some laps there sunday, do you know if they are closing it temporarily or anything?? Hopefully they wont close that track its a killer practice track and is really FAST. My condolences to the family and my heart goes out to them all rest his soul. You never want to hear about stuff like this happening, but it is a risk you take. The bigger you go the bigger the risk. Its not like theres much more he could do to protect himself since it sounds like he had all his gear on. When I dumped it on that jump (I think) my head skidded accross the ground, but I kind of know how to crash and stay low and let my arms and legs take most of the abuse. Im really sorry to hear that, let me know what's going on with all that man....
