 Superb vid- mental riding, well filmed and with great audio. I forgot how much of an impact good audio can have. Loved it.

 It was just because he's pro we care. If he had been some joey on the slopes you guys would care less it's a bummer but really.? No need to get your panties in a bunch

 We had a local rider on one of the trails I ride in sussex have a similar head injury and I was more stoked to see him riding the other week after a year out. Yeah BBH my be a pro but saying that we would care less if it was a joey is bull dude. If any of the local guys and girls on our fave trail get hurt and have to stop for a time its like we lose family for that time as all of us have helped each other out at some point be it helping fix a puncher or calling the ambulance
