Good to hear you bailed off!!!!!

You would have come away with a lot more than a broken foot. I saw a kid at St. Anthonys go over Thunder Mtn due to a stuck throttle, and they called in the Heli and hauled him out with a broken back.

Holly Shit! :o I highly doubt that the people who haven't been to Sand mountain realize what a long steep ass slope your talking about that is on the other side. When sandnureyez says 600' he is talking vertical feet from top to bottom! Probably 1000' slope distance and steep as f*ck. Its freaky just riding up the backside and going straight over the rasor to me much less flying over it from the other direction at WOT. Dude! Your bike must have flew for freaken days and dropped a hell of a long way in the air before it hit the steep ass slope! Damb thats crazy! :wacko: I'm glad your at least semi-OK and not :shootself::flush:

That video has got to be seen on HQ!
